Leptotes marina
Small blue/grey butterfly with two darker spots on hind-wing. Under wings have light colored "zebra striped" markings. Powder blue upper wing surface with a white outer margin.
Found in a desert arroyo on yellow desert flowers.
Identified with the help of bayucca: http://www.projectnoah.org/users/bayucca....
Lycaenidae, Polyommatinae, Leptotes sp. and in my eyes it should be Leptotes marina not Leptotes cassius.
