Western Pygmy Blue


This tiny butterfly was photographed in Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in Nevada. It is the tiniest butterfly in the world and a common insect in the western USA. It is expanding its range, too, reaching as far a Hawaii and the Persian Gulf. Here it is perched on the flowers of the Desert Mistletoe.

Have a great day.
We have one similar, maybe the second smallest in the world that is also a Blue Butterfly.
