Coordinator notes: Looks like a newly emerged male of the Afranius Duskywing feeding on a prairie daisy. Better common name...the Western Duskywing. The host plant are lupines. My first visit to the Colorado Paint Mines was in 1968, probably a couple of weeks later. I don't think I saw this species on that adventure. Mike
