Eastern tailed-blue
The eastern tailed-blue or eastern tailed blue (''Cupido comyntas''), also known as ''Everes comyntas'',〔(Eastern Tailed Blue ), Butterflies of Canada〕 is a common butterfly of eastern North America. It is a medium-sized butterfly that is distinguished from other blues in its range by the small thin tail.
==Description==
Males are generally blue on the upperside of their wings while females are lighter blue to brown or charcoal in coloring, but there are also varieties of purple and pink found in both sexes. The underside coloration ranges from bluish-white to tan. There are two or three (outermost one often faint) black to orange chevron-shaped spots on the rear of the hind wings and a trailing tail off the innermost of the spots. The butterfly is wide with wings outstretched and slightly shorter in length.
Eastern tailed-blues feed on various legumes and are known to secrete a substance which is favored by some ant species. The ant in turn protects the larva of the butterfly from other predators.
