Erynnis funeralis
See white fringe (although very worn on this one), and light patch on FW.

Josiah, apparently I was moving to species
about the same time as your post. The faint limited white fringe of the HW was noted but the pattern of spots and patches match Propertius. However the limited gray scaling of FW and apparent body size does not indicate Propertius. Also this specimen has lost the fringe of both FW and HW which adds to the ID difficulty. I expect a brown fringe for Propertius. Thus I agree the remaining HW white fringe indicates Funereal.

Skipper, or more precisely a duskywing
Check Erynnis
