Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Found in a meadow on a steep open slope along a trail bordering conifer forest. Nearby plants include balsamroot, lupine, desert parsley, midget phlox, showy phlox, larkspur, penstemon. Windy, sunny afternoon with temperature in upper 60s F. I was able to catch the butterfly and verify that the antennae are ringed with black all the way around, so it's not a coastal green hairstreak.
