Dave, Beautiful shot of that Emperor! My Florida Butterfly Book lists it as Asterocampa celtisit - Hackberry Butterfly but the photo is identical to your picture. It sure is a pretty one!

J: Love that American Snout ... such an unusual looking B'fly but oh so cute!

Here are a few I spotted about 1/2 hour ago.

Sulphur of some sort, there are many in my B'fly book but I can't figure out which it is .... quite a bit smaller than the Cloudless Sulphur.
