Least is More

Competing for title of smallest skipper in Florida with the Southern Skipperling we have here the Least Skipper. Very small as the name implies it is easy to tell apart from its equally tiny cousin as it lacks the white streak running across the wings. So how small is tiny well this one from end to end would measure around half an inch!

Scientific Name: Ancyloxypha numitor
Family: Hesperiidae
