Female 4Line Blue possibly Nacaduba pendleburyi.
Species that can be eliminated by certain features.
1 prominent dark straie ...N. russeli, pavana.

Arhopala pseudomuta.
Note FW postdiscal spot 4 is strongly dislocated & shifted out from spot 5 above it.
HW postdiscal band completely dislocated at vein 2, ie above the 'V' spot.
Two species have this feature, pseudomuta & alitaeus.
In addition the spots above 4, ie spots 5, 6, & 9 are often crooked, not in line.
A. pseudomuta have moderately contrasted markings.
