Orcus Checkered-Skipper

So you have also a double check of my former IDs I guess...

The Neotropical Butterfly forum has ID'd this as orcus. So I'm going with that.

Thanks for looking into this, bayucca. I agree with your points.

I know that these Pyrgus are a nightmare to ID. Looking at the several spots I think it is Orcus not Oileus. There is a large spot on the forewing, which is slightly smaller in Oileus than in Orcus and Jeff's, that make me thinkmof this one being Pyrgus orcus.

Yes, that is very similar. I still think it is Pyrgus oileus, but would like some people to confirm.

I'll agree that its a Checkered-skipper; but why not Pyrgus orcus? http://www.butterfliesofamerica.com/L/t/...

So precious!

Lovely spotting! Please, confirm the ID.
