Coordinator notes: This was a difficult ID. I shared it with other experts. The consensus is this is a worn female Little Glassywing with unique features. The white marks on the leading edge of the dorsal hindwing are rubbed areas creating a white reflection. The small white mark on the central inner part of the dorsal forewing is a true white scale mark. It is a variation that appears in low incidence in females. Thanks for your submission.
