Coordinator notes: our understanding of the various buckeyes changed in last year or two; "Tropical" (evarete) is no longer in our mix. NM has Common (coenia), Gray (grisea) and Dark (nigrosuffusa), plus all kinds of intermediates between them. This individual has the marks of Gray, which occasionally has the reddish tint (maybe a cool season form) that yours shows.
