Polygonia interrogationis
Brown overall on underside of wings. Inner-wings are orange and have a series of black spots, while it slowly gets darker towards the bottom. Inner-hindwing is lined with white.The silver mark on the underside of the hindwing is broken into two parts, a curved line and a dot, creating a ?-shaped mark that gives the species its common name.
Found on mulch pile, probably puddling for minerals.
This guy sat very still making it easy to get tons of photos to choose from.
