The Common Dartlet, Oriens gola pseudolus (Mabille)

The Common Dartlet can be seen mostly singly on low bushes sunning itself in the morning on fringes of secondary growths, wastelands or grasslands. They tend to be commoner towards the wetter months of the year when grasses are abundant and wayside plants flower more readily. From afar they ressemble a Potanthus but the markings on the upperside of the FW is distinctively different from a Potanthus.
