Ochre Ringlet, Coenonympha sp. <LEP161>

The main color of this brightest ringlet is ochre, i.e., a rich, reddish-gold. The upper side is all ochre, as is most of the forewing below. Its tip beyond the yellow-ringed black eyespot is grayish. The hindwing is olive-gray, except for the buffy lightning-streak across it. The Ochre Ringlet is very abundant in the Rocky Mountains.
