User's notes
Although this butterfly (female) refused to fully display the upper surface of it's wings, it is evident that white patches are broader and more intense than on the wings of the more common Dark Pencil-blue.

Hi Andrew, I agree with your ID. At the moment there is a site glitch that does not let me create the species. I will send off a distress signal to Patricia and Aaron.
