The Funereal Duskywing (Erynnis funeralis) is a distinctive dark skipper with velvety brown to black wings highlighted by bold white fringes along the edges. This strong contrast makes it one of the more recognizable duskywing species.
Native to the Americas, Erynnis funeralis is found throughout much of the western and southern United States, extending into Mexico and parts of Central America. It is commonly associated with open habitats such as fields, roadsides, and disturbed areas.
Interesting Fact:
Unlike many duskywings that rely on oaks, this species’ caterpillars feed on plants in the legume family, such as beans and related species, allowing it to thrive in a wider range of environments.
This specimen is preserved, fully spread and professionally mounted in a clear PE display frame, making it ready for immediate display. Collection data is included.
All specimens are ethically sourced, collected responsibly with a focus on sustainability and minimal impact on wild populations.
