Can anybody help with this butterfly ID.
To me it leans toward a female Lethe creola but might just be a female Lethe
anthedon abberration. I found several L. anthedon and one of these odd
ones. The L. creola shouldn't be this far North from what I can find in the
books. But butterflies seldom read those.
