While looking at verbal color descriptions of Aricia saepiolus in a 50 year
old paper; I encountered the following descriptions of dorsal color: silvery
violaceous blue, silvery lilaceous blue. I do not have any color charts
available to me out here in the wilderness. Can anyone clarify in words the
difference between lilaceous and violaceous ? Am especially wondering which
is the "darker & more purple" of the two colors. Thanks
