I was rather lazy with this crescent/checkerspot out in western South Dakota. I suppose it's just a PEARL CRESCENT but I have yet to be able to ID these quickly from above. Any quick/easy methods?
I think this is probably a female Northern Crescent. Supposedly that pale white band on yours is a Northern feature. Here is one that is nearly identical from an area outside of Pearl Crescent range: http://tinyurl.com/2cff3te
