Still tentative, because I'm not familiar
with the range of variation in the pattern on the underside for either species, but based on the large prominent submarginal black spots, and the general disposition of the markings, it really looks like C. arizonensis to me.

I'll come back to this one if somebody doesn't beat me to it

Moved from Butterflies (excluding skippers).
