The Blue Metalmark (Lasaia sula)is a tiny butterfly with a wingspan of less than 1½ inches. Males have brilliant metallic blue-green wings, while females are gray with dark checkered markings.
Diet: Adults feed on flower nectar and may also gather minerals from moist soil or other nutrient sources. Caterpillars feed on host plants in the pea family.
Range & Habitat: This butterfly occurs in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South Texas and south through Mexico into Central America. It inhabits subtropical woodland edges, open forests, and agricultural areas.
Interesting Fact: The male butterfly’s shimmering blue-green color changes in appearance with the angle of the light. Despite its tiny size, this butterfly is one of the distinctive tropical species that reaches the United States only in far southern Texas.
