Erynnis persius

[Kondla, Norbert FOR:EX]

The taxonomy of the assumed species E. persius in northwestern North America
is in a most unsatisfactory state. These butterflies are doing some really
interesting things out this way. To help sort this out, I need at least a
few specimens of real nominate E. persius from the eastern USA.  If you have
any or know someone who does or encounter this butterfly this season, please
drop me a line. Thank you.
