Good match to P. jaliscalis
Several details of the wing pattern here match the populations in Central Texas which I am labeling as P. jaliscalis. See, for instance, this example from Austin on iNaturalist, and yet another.

Thanks!
Thanks! I'll go with P. jaliscalis, especially after comments on this individual that was observed 45 miles away.
