This specimen was photographed in September, meaning it is most likely to be Apodemia mormo (mormo) based . . . → Opširnije: Stupid buttefly of the week One of the perks of being an entomologist is traveling and collecting. I put a few thousand miles on the car every summer and these are two of the best places in Arizona to collect.
