Distinctive Butterfly
JVG10,
This butterfly is not likely to be confused without anything else. However, your cryptic monicker and "JVG10 County" only serve to obscure identification and create unnecessary work for editors. Only after googling Falcon Park, was I able to determine that it is on the same parallel as southern Florida, confirming distribution. In the future, please enter the information correctly. Thank you for understanding.
Robert
