Coordinator notes: Unfortunately, it looks like her chrysalis must've been in a warmer area than the native habitat and she accidentally eclosed too early. You can differentiate P. glaucus (Eastern Tiger) from P. canadensis (Canadian Tiger) by location, amount of blue on HW, as well as the thickness of the dark band along the inner HW margin. The amount of blue on the HW classic for a female. -jmgesell
