Ancyloxypha numitor
Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA
June 1, 2005
This is in the lepidoptera family but I could only find two possible - an orange skipperling or a small orange butterfly. It was feeding from a dandelion with its proboscuis. Its less than 1". Could someone help me identify this species. Is it male or female? Teddie
