Celastrina ladon neglecta – ‘Summer’ Spring Azure

Caterpillar foods: dogwood, viburnum, and cherry flowers; possibly many others

‘Summer’ Spring Azures are similar to ‘Spring’ Spring Azures, and closely related.  ‘Summer’ Azures fly later in the summer – from early June until early September.  They are lighter gray under their wings, with smaller spots.
