Great Autumn Sedge - Pycnopsyche

Great Autumn Sedge - Pycnopsyche
Ailsa Craig, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada
October 6, 2005
Size: 18-20 mm
Came to light; looks similar to my photo from New Brunswick and the photo from New England by Thomas Ames labeled Pycnopsyche guttifer.

Nolie's recent photo seems to have less-pointed wingtips, and the dark terminal band is some distance from the outer margin. A different species? Or just variation?
