Daniele, I added the uncropped photo. It shows size compared to an average sized skipper.
and this one bayucca... any ideas?
Hi Pam! Do you remember how big this was? I wonder if it could be one of the many Giant Cupids (Lepidochrysops sp. or Orachrysops sp.): it has some of their characteristics, that is: well marked spots, a series of submarginal chevrons, and a red or orange crowned black cubital spot. I hope someone else can help further!
