Damon blue - Agrodiaetus damon

	Family: Lycaenidae Flight Time: July - August Size: 30-34mm Altitude: 1000-2100m
A glorious shining blue upperside, together with a striking streaked underside make the Damon blue an excellent addition to the mountain species count. Tended to be at relatively lower altitudes in Switzerland, still quite high compared with UK standards though (1300m+).
