Skipper ID request

[cecropia117]

Hi

Hoping someone may be able to help me with the Skipper below.

It was photographed last week on a grassy limestone hillside in the Cote D'Or.

I cannot seem to find a good fit on the Pyrgus guide. This was the only shot i could get, no underside!

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Only can be ID'd with an upperside.

Have you considered Red Underwing?

Red Underwing without a doubt! No wonder we couldn't find a close match in the Pyrgus guide - it's a Spialia!

Thanks for the help with the ID!
