John, is this insect one from your E. acasta sighting 4502410? Of the 15 seen was it the only one nectaring on H. violacea? Do you have any underside photos of this individual or get a good look at same?

Owen, different one. I didn't get a view of the underside. This was the only one I saw on H violacea.
