Right on! From the photos, it
Right on! From the photos, it is clear that this is in the Homoneura occidentalis-group. Of the two species (H. occidentalis and H. arizonensis - can't tell the difference without genitalia), this is almost certainly H. occidentalis, only because it is far more widespread, and Santa Clara Co. would be slightly out of the known range for H. arizonensis (not by far though).
