Submitted by: Cascade Colors
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Not able to differentiate well between them. Draco seems most likely? But I wonder about the antenna colors. Habitat-wise, it seems can rule out Uncas and Pahaska, as though there is open meadow, some very wet, it's not really prairie-like and the meadows are close to coniferous forest and mountain habitat.

Coordinator notes: Draco Skipper is correct...Nevada Skipper (Hesperia nevada) does not have that long-dash spot in the macular band on the uhw and the spots are usually well toothed toward the edge of the wing not so squared off in that direction (at least if the band spots are typically large and complete). You should be able to compare with photos on the BAMONA website. Mike
