Celastrina - Celastrina echo - male

Celastrina - Celastrina echo - Male
Oliver Lee State Park, Otero County, New Mexico, USA
February 4, 2013
Steve Cary -"to my knowledge, this is our earliest record of this species/complex by almost 3 weeks!"

taxon assignment based on previous ones
I don't see any difference between these and the ones in mountainous areas further west, and this name seems fine, but I don't know what connection they have to populations further to the east. Personally, I can't really see an obvious east / west division either.

Moved from Azures.
