Skip to my confusion
If ever there was a confusing group of butterflies, it would have to be the ones known as Skippers. Perhaps as compensation, they are simple to distinguish from typical butterflies: just look at the antennae. Most true butterflies have a rounded knob at the end of the antennae, while almost all skippers have a pointed projection known as an apiculus. This one clearly has the projection, so it's clearly a skipper... but which one? Ah, there's the problem. There are a number of skippers that look almost identical, and the only way you can tell them apart is to "collect" them and look under a hand lens or microscope. If you're trying to do an ID through a camera lens, well, good luck. This one, I think, just might be a Zabulon Skipper... or maybe not.
