I think that this is very Cupido (Everes) argiades since its wings end with little brushes and edged with a moderate black fringe.

In this very case it's rather hard to give standard label info. In short: Polyommatus eros boisduvalii. Female mother was caught in Volgograd by Gennady Kuznetsov. The egg came in Rostov-on-Don. The caterpillar was raised in Dombay (1600m above sea-level) on astragals picked at Mussa-Achitara (2700m). Pupaed in Dombay, but pupa raised in Rostov-on-Don.

18.01.2011 5:52, Boris Stradomsky: comment on Eumedonia eumedon

Indeed, currently dominated by the view that eumedon belongs to the genus Aricia. However, recent molecular genetic studies, such as: http://rspb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/suppl/2010/08/10/rspb.2010.1089.DC1/rspb20101089supp2.pdf suggest that a nursing eumedon views with respect to Cyaniris semiargus, and not to Aricia. In addition, representatives of Aricia have a different structure ...
