Thanks to the observant for the comment. My identification of the above skipper was incorrect. It is a Clouded Skipper instead of a Dun Skipper and I have made the appropriate change in the label. The imported photo below is very likely that of a Dun Skipper.

Ok, I see that the image appears in place of the URL (text) that I entered.
So, now that both photos are on this page, reworded comment is :

Skippers in first and second photos, both labeled with common name "Dun",
obviously differ in appearance, and photos are labeled with different scientific names.
URL (typed below in modified form so that it remains text) of second is :
