By the geographical location, shape and markings I would place this in the genus Adelpha commonly known as Sisters. I am unsure of the species. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adelpha This species has the same outline of the Basilarchia group of the Limenitis genus (North American Admirals) but is not a known color morph associated with any of the species.
