Coordinator notes: The Green Comma...aka Colorado Angle-wing (Colorado Butterflies, Brown, Eff & Rotger, 1957, p. 93...Polygonia hylas). One thought a distinct species-level taxon but not. Main character are distinct separate spots all within the dark marginal wing border (this individual has larger than average ones too). These are larger and tend to be diffuse with the border on the Satyr Comma...if there is much of a dark border onto the wing disc at all...it is often only a narrow line near the wing edge. Mike
