Biography:

A teenager interested in bugs for nearly as long as I've understood what a bug is. Papilionoidea is the only kind of bug that I have any appreciable knowledge of; I have a good field guide which I've thumbed through for years. I'm very grateful to the BugGuide contributors for identifying all the other arthropods in my life; so I try to return the favor by identifying others' butterflies. My uncertainty and lack of expertise in these ID attempts are not to be underestimated.

If, in your opinion, any image of mine does not add value to the guide, feel free to frass it; I won't mind.
