Upperside (Female) © James Adams, 2001. Underside, red "fall" form.
The upperside pictured is unusually orange; most
individuals will have significantly less orange, at least
in Georgia. Florida has a higher percentage of individuals with the orange
flush. As far as the underside goes,
the pictured red form is more frequent in the fall than spring and summer; the
underside of the hindwing is
typically tan, with a few small eyespots in the submarginal area.
