Ocola Skipper 
Panoquina ocola

Ocola Skipper is common in all regions of the state except the higher elevations in the Mountains where it is rare. It migrates both northward and southward in fall, but such movements are not noticed in Georgia, which is in the main breeding area. (Cech and Tudor, 2005). The habitat is a variety of open areas, both dry and moist. The hostplants are not well documented, but rice cutgrass (Leersia oryzoides) has been documented and is widespread in Georgia. There are two broods: the first occurs in May and June and the second occurs from mid-July into early November (November 2, Terrell County, November 8, Wheeler County). Early Date: May 27 (Chatham County); Late Date: November 8 (Wheeler County). Conservation Status: Secure.
