Tim Stratford / 1,000 items
Doi Suthep-Pui NP, Chiang Mai, Thailand

Family : Lycaenidae
Sub-Family : Polyommatinae
Species : Niphanda asialis

An uncommon species found in India, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, southern China, and Indonesia. It is only a small butterfly with a wingspan of 26-29mm. Unfortunately I have been unable to find any more information on this species and as I have only seen it briefly a couple of times I don't have any personal observations to add.

All my insect pics are single, handheld shots of live insects in wild situations.
