Sinthusa malika amata (Distant)

Uncommon but may be found even in disturbed environment on the edge of verdures. In flight, the males look smaller than its actual size because of the small lustrous blue area of the HW and FW against the dark background giving it an illusion of a small glittering insect in flight. Very swift on the wings.
