Large 4-Lineblue (Nacaduba pactolus)

Large 4-Lineblue is a rare butterfly found in forests and well wooded areas of all elevations up to the higher hills. It is the only Nacaduba species of the island in which antennae are white-tipped and also the largest of them. Entada rheedei (පුස් වැල්) is its only known larval host plant in Sri Lanka.
