This gets its name from the small silvery dots in the black spots near the edge of the underside of its hind wing. It flies on heaths from May to August.

Photo taken 21/06/24, at Chobham Common, Surrey. Not the sharpest photo, but it shows the silvery-blue specks in the black spots near the edge of the underside of the hind wings that give this butterfly its name.
