Gyascutus dianae
The gold reflections can be seen. G. dianae was common from South of Palm Desert on May 29th. I did not see any G. carolinensis. G. carolinensis is more coppery with dark pink reflectionsis. It is not out just yet.

Move to Gyascuts page?
Is there some reason this has not been moved to the Gyascutus page?

Movement
Images being moved is based on who sees it. You can move your own images, otherwise it depends on one of the editors seeing them and moving them. Sometimes editors see and move things quickly, other times it's slower, typically depending on how much free time they have and how much is within the taxonomic level the photos were originally placed at. Or if it's not a group they know they may be hesitant to move photos.
