Creole Pearly-eye
Enodia creola

Observation date: August 02, 2014
Submitted by: wallap74
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Although it's difficult to see black on the antenna clubs on these less-than-stellar photos, the features of the underwing seem to me to point to Creole rather than Southern Pearly-eye. This is a known location for Creole.
Status: Resident

Coordinator notes: While I cannot make out the black on the antenna, the submitter did note black in the observation notes. On the wings, there is a bulging pm line. The inner band is spiked in places Both of these are characteristics of Creole. SAT
