[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was captured in Chennai yesterday. Around 3cm wingspan. Happily posed for a long time, settled below a leaf. Though one antenna is missing and lower Termen region of the hind wing is damaged I thought it is fare enough for identification.

Cropped and sharpened.

Hello Vral,
this is a small nice collection of different views of the small butterfly. It is a female of
- Curetis siva
- family: Lycaenidae
Because the upperside wing pattern is not seen entirely, I can't give the identification for 100%. Curetis thetis is also possible.
Best wishes, Peter
