Ochre Ringlet (LEP161) Coenonympha sp. 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. |
