[Ctleps-l] Dark female E Tiger Swallowtail

[Grkovich, Alex]

Peter,

That looks more like a female Appalachiensis..............I don't think that is glaucus. Check the comparative photos of female glaucus and appalachiensis on the (Welcome to) Butterflies of America.....

8/17 - Naugatuck yard - I had a dark female Eastern Tiger Swallowtail today on buddleia when I came home from work. They are annual in my yard.
