Arhopala argentea, is a butterfly in the family Lycaenidae.

It was described by Otto Staudinger in 1888.

It is found in the Indomalayan realm where it is found in Celebes and the Philippines.

[2] Looks beneath almost exactly like sangira, but it is at once discernible by the mother-of-pearl white upper surface showing lilac or greenish reflections in a certain light.

Margin and apex of forewing blackish, thus superficially resembling the colouring of some Lampides, even of small Pieridae.
