Arhopala phaenops
Arhopala phaenops is a butterfly in the family Lycaenidae. It was described by Cajetan Felder and Rudolf Felder in 1865. It is found in the Indomalayan realm.
A. phaenops Fldr. is similar to Arhopala adorea, but it is smaller and of a brighter blue, These species are discernible by their under surface, where the small rings of the proximal half of the hindwing are very small in A. phaenops and therefore more remote from each other when compared with A. adorea,. Further, the transverse bands in the marginal area of the forewing, which in A. adorea are interrupted on the median, are unbroken in A. phaenops.
