Chlosyne nycteis
A silvery checkerspot not to be confused with the pearl crescent because of those two white dots on the hind wing spots. Such a difference haha. Love butterflies. Such awesome and delicate creatures.
North America.

Oh yeah sorry my mistake. I tend to upload a folder of spottings at once and Ctrl+C Ctrl+P my binomial names from a word doc. Sometimes they get mixed up. In this case my silvery checkerspot and locust borer spottings lol
