I'm not sure what this is, partly because the wings are so ragged. Can anyone verify?

Moved--not Harris Checkerspot
Moved from Harris's Checkerspot. This is not a Harris Checkerspot. It appears to be similar to a "Variable Checkerspot", also called the "Chalcedon Checkerspot", Euphydryas chalcedona. I'm not well-versed in this group, so I have moved it to the appropriate genus level.
