Arhopala davaona |
Arhopala davaona is a butterfly in the family Lycaenidae. It was described by Georg Semper in 1890. It is found in the Indomalayan realm where it is endemic to the Philippines.[2] A. davaona Smpr. is separated from Arhopala hesba by its much smaller size and the more regular marking beneath; besides there is no metallic scaling at all at the anal angle. The upper surface is of a deep dark blue with a very broad marginal band also in the male.[3]
