Notes
Lifer. First E. guttolineata record in the database for Fairfax County, and likely the northernmost one in the database.
This one was found at a spot where it hybridizes with E. longicauda. This individual appears to have traits of E. longicauda, to include a long tail and herringbone patterning. Additionally, the third "line" is not as bold on this individual as pure E. guttolineata specimens.
