Salt Marsh Skipper

The Salt Marsh Skipper (Panoquina panoquin) is a butterfly of the Hesperiidae family. This is the easiest skipper to identify at the GTM because of the short white bar on the underside of the hind wing.

It is found along the Atlantic Coast of the United States, from New York south to Florida and the Florida Keys, west along the Gulf Coast to southern Texas.

Wingspan: 35–39 mm.
