Tiny butterfly ID needed.

Santa Fe, TX(Zone 9b)

I saw several of these fingernail sized fellows today, and wondered if someone can ID it for me. Thanks

Could be wrong, but it looks like a Pearl Crescent to me.

I am 98% sure that you are correct. I am too tired to be sure of anything right now. Thanks.

After looking at several more, I do believe you are 100% correct. Thank you very much.

I've had a few of these in my garden.
But I believe I've seen at least three similar kinds.

Thanks for sharing your pretty picture.

On a walk down near the pond today, I think I saw at least 50, each slightly different. Many showed wear and tear.
Thanks again.
