Fritillaries?
June 23, 2010
Hi Daniel, I don’t know the species of these but maybe something you were looking for. They are some that looked sort of like “Fritillaries” to me. I have more but the site only allows three images. If you would like more let me know and I will send them thru outlook express. Thank You and have a great day

Hi Richard,
Two of your photos are of Fritillaries, probably the Great Spangled Fritillary, Speyeria cybele, which is profiled on BugGuide.  Your third photo is of a Question Mark, the other butterfly we requested photos of.
