Woodland Skipper
Ochlodes sylvanoides

Observation date: September 10, 2023
Submitted by: Lisahug
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: No idea. My initial thought was maybe a Fiery Skipper with extremely faint spots. But if that's so, they are nonexistent. Nothing with a plain orange underwing is in range. It is very small - about the size of a Fiery Skipper. I couldn't get a view or photo of the upperside.
