    Default Another Skipper for ID

    Dear Dr Seow, pls help with the ID of the skipper by a friend. Is this Polytremis lubricans lubricans (Contiguous Swift)? Thanks so much!

    Yes P. lubricans female.

    FW spots are yellow , the HW spots are very variable in number.
    The male is browner with a rounded FW apex.
    The female is ochreous, coarsely-scaled with a pointed FW apex.
