Hobomok Skipper - Poanes hobomok
Shirley, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, USA
September 20, 2009
Found inside leaves sealed together on a bush clover. On page 71 of Wagner he says the body is orange-brown, but has a green caterpillar pictured. At least one of it's food plants, love grass was plentiful in the area.
