Nacaduba berenice, the rounded six-line blue, is a lycaenid butterfly found in Indomalayan realm. The species was first described by Gottlieb August Wilhelm Herrich-Schäffer in 1869. Male upperside: dull purplish blue, in certain lights with a shining plumbeous (lead-coloured) frosting. Forewings and hindwings: black anteciliary lines and on the hindwing the black subterminal spot in interspace 2 on the underside apparent by transparency. Underside: purplish grey. Forewing: a pair of curved white lines from costa transversely across the cell to vein 1, a short similar line on the inner side of the discocellulars followed by three transverse discal similar lines from costa to vein 1, an inner and outer transverse subterminal series of slender white lunules and an anteciliary dark brown line. Hindwing: crossed transversely by three slender broken lines, with a short line on the inner side of the discocellulars between the outer two; these are followed by a discal and a postdiscal less broken and interrupted similar lines, a double series of slender white lunules and a dark anteciliary line as on the forewing.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rounded Sixline Blue is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (385 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
