Coordinator notes: This looks like afranius to me...where did you see this.? I only know of 2 Ventura County records for afranius in Ventura County, both on Frazier Mountain. Based on the lowland record of the Ridgeline of Hillcrest open Space in Thousand Oaks I would say that afranius makes more sense than higher elevation Erynnis pacuvius callidus. A very exciting record to me! Good going!-Ken Davenport
