The Lesser Grass Blue, Zizina otis lampa (Corbet)

This is one of the smallest of butterflies to be found, commonly, on grass patches fringing roads, open areas as well as wooded localities. It is almost inconspicuous fluttering lowly about its usual haunts and is easily overlooked due to its size and drab colours.
