Coordinator notes: Thanks for sharing your record. I hope the caterpillar rearing was fun. Huckleberry is an odd host plant. Your photo shows a hint of a central spot on the upper hind wing and a marginal spot band on the underside which coupled with the weird host plant leads to Green Comma. Thank you
