Observation date: July 23, 2024
Submitted by: Cascade Colors
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Underwing color seemed nearly white - which is something I've not come across before. Blue Copper seemed most likely based on some of the pics of it I was reviewing. Else maybe Ruddy Copper, since there does appear to be an orangeish tinge on the upper wing.

Coordinator notes: Your deduction was correct...no orange on the underside of the forewings on the Blue Copper...male or female but there is some orange on the Ruddy...the one you photographed looks to be a female. Mike
