Field notes and information

ARIZONA April 2015: We eventually found this butterfly in the SE in a couple of small areas of the sky islands. It is similar to the Reakirt's blue Echinargus isola which we found commonly throughout our trip. The species are separated by the lack of bold spots of the underside forewing of the current species.
