Bramble Green Hairstreak Callophrys dumetorum

Also known as Bramble Hairstreak or Green Hairstreak.

Also sometimes labeled as Callophrys  perplexa or  Callophrys viridis and sometimes Callophyrys affinis and C. apama. I DO NOT know the proper taxonomy. I am NOT a butterfly expert. All of these Green hairstreaks use the same food plants, that's what I care about, and listing them so you can make the connection..
