Some question this might have been funeralis. I don't think I got a clear enough ventral shot. Slight white fringe still visible. Big Creek Butterfly Count.

Single individual observed feeding on Bidens alba. This is a first for me at this location---very exciting! A Horace's Duskywing and this one would sometimes spar while they were both feeding on this plant. Low 80sF, mostly overcast, humid.
