Question Mark

The Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis) is a medium-sized butterfly with bright warm orange forewings with 3 dots and one dash in a line near the middle on the dorsal side. The underside is variable ranging from a mottled combo of brown and tan with purple, or a bit plainer and more uniform tan or bronze. Note the namesake “?” symbol that appears near the center of the ventral side hindwing on all forms.
