With cool temps and no nectar around, there was no way I was going to get an underwing shot. I recognize how this photo is pretty useless, but it still seemed so late in the season and surprising for any of these here, I'm posting it anyhow

What an amazing looking beetle. It almost looks like it has miniature patches of moss mixed with patches of lichen on its elytra.

1.5 miles from Oklahoma! I spent the next few hours trying to find one south of the border, but all the trails/roads had selenite gravel that formed a hardened crust that didn’t seem to work as purpurea habitat, or were pure clay that also doesn’t seem ideal. These appear intermediate between ssp. purpurea and audubonii.

Remarkably fresh. Found near the creek, just a few feet away from a second species of Amblyscirtes: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/153896436

~7100' elevation. Attracted to porch light. Little Round Valley, Eastern Sierra, CA.
Color of moth was more like the photo that shows sandy gray-ish rather than the one that looks golden. Inside wings were pale, dull whitish, no markings except as can be seen along the top edge.

I think, as default anyway? But I have no experience with Sierra, and this seemed tiny compared to the Nevada Skippers I see in the Carson Range. Using Nevada as a placeholder in the meantime, and would be happy to be wrong!
A little over 11,200' elevation

Just hunting in the woods, but prob. breeding at Lily Pond, nearby. 1st documented Tahoe Basin record that I know of, but almost certainly have been here all along. Bummed I didn't get a better photo!!
