Hobomok Skipper (Poanes hobomok)

In NC, these are found mainly in the mountains and western piedmont, although a few eastern piedmont records exist. Related to Zabulon Skipper, Hobomoks can be found in the same habitat and location with Zabulons. While Zabulons are double-brooded, Hobomoks are single-brooded, flying in the spring to early summer.
