Byssus Skipper had been recorded in 14 other Kansas counties, but none near Konza.  It is distinguished by large, yellowish males, which contrast strongly with the very dark females.  The larval host is  eastern gama grass (Tripsacum dactyloides) which occurs in clustered patches on Konza.  In spite of its large size for a skipper, the Byssus can easily be overlooked.  It often flies low, inside a clump of gama grass and can be difficult to see and catch.  They occasionally visit flowers late in the afternoon when many other species have quieted down for the day.
