Duskywing Butterfly

Here’s a tiny butterfly I’d never seen before. 

Aug 16 (2) Wild Indigo Duskywing canvas

A search of a butterfly identification website leads me to believe that this butterfly goes by the name of Wild Indigo Duskywing.  If I’m wrong, please let me know.  The wildflower is a type of Vervain.

    I rarely indentify butterflies as anything other than beautiful!

    Fantastic photo.

    Beautiful shot! I know nothing about names for butterflies, but I think that names sounds pretty fitting for this little guy.
