摘要

The genus Lepidochrysops Hedicke is a large Afrotropical polyommatine genus of butterflies that contains 134 recognized species (Williams, 2005). The L. ortygia species-group (Tite, 1964; Swanepoel & Vari, 1983) comprises 15 closely-related species confined to South Africa and Lesotho (Table 1). Species of the ortygia-group are characterized by black-and-white chequered marginal cilia and, in the males, by blue upperside coloration. The larvae of Lepidochrysops spp., in those species that have been studied, are phytopredacious. The first and second larval instars feed on flower buds or seed ovules. The third instar is carried by its host ant, a species of Camponotus, into the ants' subterranean nest, where it subsists on ant-brood. Pupation and eclosion occur inside the ant-nest, the newly-emerged imago only expanding its wings after having exited from the entrance hole of the nest (Claassens, 1976).
