Description from Seitz

{{Lepidopteran glossary hatnote}}

L. loewii Z. (= empyrea Frr.) (78 i). Has the appearance of a small form of the preced ing [L. aliardii] ; male above very vividly glossy blue, almost as in bellargus but darker; the female above brown with yellowish red spots in the anal area of the hindwing. Underside with an abundance of ocelli, behind the red submarginal band of the hindwing there are metallic dots. Asia Minor, Armenia, Persia and Turkestan. — The large form gigas Stgr. (78 i, k), from Syria, resembles especially lycidas but the ocelli of the hindwing beneath are larger and placed closer together; moreover, the characteristic intense blue gloss, which no other Blue has in the same tint, is as strong in gigas as in true loewii. — But another form, which flies at Sharud and in Baluchistan and agrees in size with true loewii, is said to be paler violet-blue and has been named chamanica Moore [now full species]. In May and June, locally plentiful.[2]

Biology

The larva feeds on Astragalus - A. spinosus, A. sieberi, A. schahrudensis
