    This is some other species of skipper, it doesn't have the dark spots of the Fiery Skipper. Posted 11 years ago

The Pickerelweed

"Pontederia cordata" is a monocotyledonous aquatic plant native to the American continent. It grows in a variety of wetlands, including pond and lake margins across an extremely large range from eastern Canada south to Argentina. A few examples include northern rivers, the Everglades and Louisiana.
