The Lycaenidae are the second-largest family of butterflies, with about 6000 species worldwide[citation needed], whose members are also called gossamer-winged butterflies. There are nearly 6000 species and they constitute about 40% of the butterfly species.[1]

The family is traditional divided into the subfamilies of the blues (Polyommatinae), the coppers (Lycaeninae), the hairstreaks (Theclinae) and the harvesters (Miletinae); others include the (Lipteninae, Liphyrinae, and Poritiinae) but these are taxonomy dependent. A few authorities include the family Riodinidae within the Lycaenidae. The sole member of the subfamily Styginae is represented by Styx infernalis from the Peruvian Andes. Recent molecular evidence places Styginae within the family Riodinidae.

Adults are small, under 5 cm usually, and brightly coloured, sometimes with a metallic gloss. The male's forelegs are reduced in size and lack claws.

Larvae are often flattened rather than cylindrical, with glands that may produce secretions that attract and subdue ants. Their cuticles tend to be thickened. Some larva are capable of producing vibrations and low sounds that are transmitted through the plants. They use these sounds to communicate with ants.[2][3]

Adult individuals often have hairy antenna-like tails complete with black and white annulated appearance. Many species also have a spot at the base of the tail and some turn around upon landing to confuse potential predators from recognizing the true head orientation. This causes predators to approach from the true head end resulting in early visual detection

Hola Jose,
what a fine picture. The brown and yellows in this image match perfectly well. The blurred background puts all attention to the flower and butterfly.
Is it a crop? I wondered what the picture would look like if all of the flower would be in the picture.
Regards, JAcob
