Field Notes
Description:
At almost 2 ¼” long. In both sexes, the base of the wing is brown. Males have big bluish-white spots next to the brown, fading to clear-ish patches at the wing tips. The center of the female’s abdomen is a black stripe, bordered on each side by broad, gold stripes that merge at the thorax like an inverted V. Juveniles start out looking like females, and the juvenile male's abdomen gradually changes color.
Habitat:
Miller Springs Park near rim of spillway.
