Questa bella Celastrina argiolus la dedico alla brava Akihisa Kitanosono, ( AKITA)

Celastrina argiolus (Linnaeus 1758) Piccolo argus
Ali anteriori 13-17 mm
Descrizione
Licenide piccolo caratterizzato da dimorfismo sessuale: i maschi sono superiormente di colore azzurro-cielo con riflessi rossicci e margini sottili neri. Le femmine hanno tonalità più o meno chiare (in dipendenza del tipo di generazione) e margini scuri molto larghi. Le parti inferiori sono, in ambo i sessi, biancastre con spolverature basali azzurre e una serie di punti neri talvolta evanescenti.
Biologia
È specie bivoltina con sfarfallamenti in aprile-maggio e in luglio-agosto. Le uova vengono deposte in primavera per lo più sull'agrifoglio, mentre in estate sull'edera. I bruchi sono verdi o con toni giallastri, dorsalmente con una serie di disegni triangolari rossastri. Essi danno luogo a fenomeni di simbiosi con formiche del gen. Lasius. Le crisalidi della seconda deposizione sono svernanti.
Distribuzione ed ecologia
Specie ad amplissima diffusione. Il suo areale abbraccia Europa, Asia e Nordamerica. Nel nostro continente presente ovunque eccetto Scozia e Scandinavia settentrionale. Comune in Italia, dalla pianura ai 1500 m.; da noi facilmente osservabile presso siepi e radura boschive.

Hi Silvio

I don't know what happened to Linda tonight. I think she's off chasing Rosa? Hope she catches her, too! Another superb profile of a moth, & the curved thorax adds interest here. Good dof, colour, & sharpness. Have a great weekend!

Hi Silvio,
Wonderful POV; we rarely see the "bodies" like this! Very nice colors.

dear Silvio,
thank you so much for your wonderful present, I think it an honor to recieve your excellent picture.
Celastrina argiolus is most beautiful and most popular butterfly in Japan too. you captured its side figure very clearly and beauyifully, maybe it is male, I can see partially the inner blue/violet color on the edge of it.
of course that inner color is extreme.
Japanese name of it is "ruri-shijime", "ruri" means shining blue/violet color, and "shijime" means little shell. I like this name as same as its graceful figure.
anyway, this your shot is nice to compose it with pretty yellow flower and comfortable green back.
again thanks so much for your wonderful picture,
Akihisa

Silvio
Toujours en admiration devant la qualité de tes photos de papillon.
Amicalement
JJ
