[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
One of Europe's most widespread butterflies it is found from the edge of the Sahara to northern Scotland and northern Scandinavia to Greece. It occupies many habitats and is found from sea level to high mountains (upto 3000m). Not surprisingly there are many variations across this range. The constant feature that greatly helps separate this species from several others is the presence of a black spot in the underside forewing cell. This distinguishes it from the otherwise very similar Chapman's Blue, A. thersites, and the larger brighter Escher's Blue, A. escheri. In northern Greece the Phalakron Blue, P. andronicus but this is so rare and local that it is unlikely to be encountered without specific expeditions to look for it. It is much larger than icarus. Confusion with other species is unlikely.

Salut Horia,
excelent macro. Ma tot intrebam de unde atitia fluturi. M-am uitat pe pagina intro a ta si am gasit explicatia.
Asa poate ne apucam si noi sa invatam speciile de fluturi.
O zi frumoasa,
Adrian

Hello Horia,
A superb macro!
The sharpness, lighting, colours and BG all contribute to a top quality image showing a resting somewhat worn male P. icarus.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan
