Butterfly, some kind of hairstreak maybe? - Electrostrymon angelia

Butterfly, some kind of hairstreak maybe? - Electrostrymon angelia
Plantation, Broward County, Florida, USA

this reminds me of the mallow scrub hairstreak that I posted some time ago, but, as I am finding out with these ID's, there are many things on the underside wings that don't match up with the mallow scrubs that were ID'ed earlier.. so.. any guesses?

Yep
I think this is Fulvous Hairstreak (Electrostrymon angelia).
