Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: About 5 or so spotted this day. Saw a female with blue and brown wings.
Status: Resident

Verified date: May 05, 2024
Coordinator notes: Based on a photo and limited host plant information, I'll call it a Mojave Blue but I can't totally rule out the Dotted Blue...both species occur there. So if I am wrong, no harm to the database distribution.-Ken Davenport
