Some Alaska leps

[James Kruse]

Greetings:

I took a short walk around a pond at 30 mile Chena Hot Springs Road, roughly
30 miles from Fairbanks. There were _a lot_ of non-leps out, and I enjoyed
the day. Here are a few findings that may be of interest to this group:

Nymphalis antiopa  (Mourning Cloak)
Polygonia faunus   (Green Comma)
Celastrina ladon   (Spring Azure)
Archiearis infans (a rather fancy geometrid)

and a couple of as yet unidentified moths.

Jim
