The Small Hopper (''Platylesches tina'') is a butterfly of the Hesperiidae family. It is found in Uganda, western Kenya, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia (Caprivi) and the Transvaal. The habitat consists of well-wooded savanna and riverine vegetation. The wingspan is 25–29 mm.〔Woodhall, S. Field Guide to Butterflies of South Africa, Cape Town:Struik Publishers, 2005.〕 These skippers are brown with light white spots in the middle of both fore and hindwings. The underside of the wings are a light blue.〔 Flight period is from September to October and January to April, with two broods.〔 Adults mud-puddle, feed from bird droppings and have been recorded feeding from the flowers of trees. The larvae feed on the young foliage of ''Parinari curatellifolia''. They are leaf-green with a brown head. The larvae create leaf-shelters by taking a whole leaf and folding it in two up the mid-rib, fixing the edges together with closely spaced silk strands.〔(Afrotropical Butterflies: Hesperiidae - Subfamily Hesperiinae )〕 ==References==
