Is P. icarus. It is identified by a specialist. I have no picture with open wings, but P. thersites does not have that black dot hovering in the bottom of the forewing. I think P. thersites not live in the area. Thanks and regards.

Could also be Polyommatus thersites, Chapman's Blue. Any open wing shot?
