Abaratha ransonnetii, commonly known as the golden angle,[1] is a butterfly belonging to the family Hesperiidae.

[2][3][4][1][5][6] The following subspecies are recognised: It occurs in India (Gujarat, Jharkhand, Odisha and southwards to Kerala) and Sri Lanka.

Female; forewing with the spots and marginal lunules, and the macular band on hindwing more prominent, the latter also more distinctly bordered with grey.

Underside: forewing paler brown; the basal area greyish-white, the spots with clouded black outer borders; hindwing greyish-white, the outer margin only being brown, traversed by a curved discal series of small blackish spots.

A similar variation has been noted by Mr. de Niceville in C. tissa, a not very distantly allied species, and in both cases it is the dry-season form which is the paler.
