Coordinator notes: I strongly suspect this is Atalopedes huron (Huron Sachem), but it's difficult to be certain from this photo. I'm placing this in the "Cannot Identify" queue for one of the true Hesperiidae experts. JRains Enhancing the image reveals this to be a poorly-lighted Delaware Skipper. J. Calhoun
