Went for a evening walk and found this puddling. Wonder if this is The Dark Caerulean (Jamides bochus nabonassar)

It is Nacaduba sanaya.

Cher Hern ,
I think your initial ID is most likely correct ... The Dark Caerulean (Jamides bochus nabonassar).
It appears to be a puddling male . Did you have a chance for an upper shot or see the upper ? the upper should be a brilliant blue like so...
Thanks Uncle Sunny for the pictorial comparison and confirmation of the ID. It's such a fast flyer, was not able to capture any open wings shot. Any noticeable behaviour like open wings at a particular time?
