Unknown Azure - Lomographa semiclarata
Lafayette, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA
May 1, 2008
Size: 1/2"
Can someone tell me if this is just a spring azure or some other species or sub species? The flower it is on is a white hyacinth. It was mostly cloudy and temps in the low 60's. This butterfly was much smaller and paler than the other spring azures I have seen in the yard. It was almost white on the inside and outside.
