Observation date: August 05, 2023
Submitted by: DeepSkyKelly
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Pretty drab, but as mentioned in Glassman, my eye is drawn to the "pale chevron w/ central spot narrow and jutting out" on the underside of the hind wing. Kaufman shows dorsal views, and mentions the female's large glassy spot at the end of the forewing cell. The other markings line up with what I'm seeing in both guidebooks so I'm going with female Sachem.
