As is usual, when Seow puts up additional identification details, I check my existing photos. Thank you for these insights, Seow.
I have revisited my C. lohita photos, and, whilst I am happy with the vast majority, I have this one which is giving me doubts. It was taken on 24 January 2008, so I can not remember its size, but on checking my other photos for the day, I do know that it was taken on a hilltop, not as high as stated in C&P4 (we do not go that high here), but at c. 450m. I now think it may be C. seliga. Any chance of a confirmation?
Incidentally, does anyone know the history for the change of name for this genus from Spindasis? Has it been subdivided, or does Cigaritis have preference?
Cigaritis (Spindasis) lohita or seliga?
