Argynnis egleis reidi type locality
USA: NV: White Pine Co., Snake Range, Mt. Wheeler viewed from the west 26-VI-08
"This is included in Great Basin National Park, but all access to the park is from the east side, close to the Utah border. Lehman Caves is in the park. The TLs of Euphydryas editha lehmani and Argynnis egleis reidi are in the higher parts of the park. The peak is 13,083 feet (the second highest peak in the state I believe) The highest peak, a few feet higher at 13,143 feet, is Boundary Peak in the White Mts., virtually on the California border."
