Coordinator notes: Correct identification. This species isn't commonly found up in the subalpine like this; it usually prefers torrid montane habitats under 9,500 feet. These ones probably migrated up in elevation along with the summer heat, or a population explosion in the montane pushed them up into the subalpine.
