For my next video I traveled about an hour from home to observe and collect one of Colorado's Parnassians... Parnassius smintheus sayii

Congratulations! Another very interesting video, it's great to see these habitats for those of us that are unlikely to ever get there.
Interestingly, in the sequence when you showed the pair in cop, there was a larva sitting on an adjacent twig which looked very much like a Colias, are there species found in the habitat other than the ubiquitous philodice and eurytheme?

Thanks bobw.
I noticed the caterpillar as well. The Colias that would be up there is most likely C. philodice. The area is too low for some of Colorado's other Colias such as C. meadii or C. alexandra...
