A few years ago this would have been called the baton blue - Pseudophilotes baton - but the species has been separated into two, eastern and western. Characteristic of the baton blues are the chequered fringe, the small size and the cell spots on the upperside and underside. This species is found, in Europe, from Austria eastwards. For the female, see the picture of baton blue HERE.
