Question Mark Invasion in Southeast AZ

In addition to the Question Marks (Polygonia interrogationis) reported
earlier in this part of Arizona - Priscilla saw one up in the Ramsey
Canyon Preserve on Tuesday, 9/28.  As near as I can tell there is only
one other report from the Huachuca Mountains.
We had previously reported these dark bugs as winter form due to
mis-labeled plates in one of the older field guides.  This form is
apparently the summer form.  
Has anyone else noticed any unusual irruption of this species in the
west?
Cheers!
BTW click on SEABA's new website in our sig file.
