Dusky-Wing -- In need of an ID

Everyone,

A dusky-wing was photographed last weekend at Point Pelee, Ontario (Lake
Erie).

We are debating its identity.  We have narrowed it down to Wild Indigo
(most likely) with a remote chance that it might be a Zarucco.

Wild Indigo is uncommon to rare in southern Ontairo, including Point
Pelee.  For Zarucco, the only Ontario record is an old specimen from
Toronto.

The specimen is extremely fresh and appears to be a female.

Here is a link to two photos:

Any opinions on this dusky-wing would be most grateful.
