Horace's Duskywing

Copyright © Lewis Scharpf

Erynnis horatius
Bon Secour National Wildlife Area
Coastal Alabama
Note: Horace's Duskywing is almost identical in appearance to
Juvenal's Duskywing. Horace's, however, is double brooded and therefore
more likely to be seen in July or August when the Juvenal's is not flying.
Horace's lacks the two apical white spots on the hindwing present on the
Juvenal's
