I think, based on pictures found online, that this is a tawny hackberry emporor butterfly. A hackberry, by the way, is a type of tree. Lots of 'em around here, though I never knew what they were called before trying to identify this butterfly seen in the Arboretum.

Hackberries are trees? I thought they were bushes or something. I'll bet I've looked at them over and over and not known what they were.
Yup, they are trees. And yes, like me you've probably seen them a hundred times and never knew what they were.

Got it! ;)
