Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: There were several flying about and landing on a willow near a very small stream in Upper Water Canyon, at the first stream crossing going up the trail from NM Hwy. 501. It was a sunny warm afternoon. I believe the second two photos are of the same individual--note damage to right hind wing. Is the first photo of a male and the second two of a female?

Coordinator notes: you are correct on the ID - good diagnosis, and thanks for the ventral view. male and female are almost impossible to distinguish from photos alone. thanks for submitting!
