[4] This subfamily was long used to assign taxa of unclear relationships, and its contents and phylogeny are still in need of revision.

All species of the Lycaenidae family, except Genus of Everes, lack tails on the hindwing.

[4] Almost all Polyommatinae have dots on the underside of its wings, with a medium to small wingspan ranging from .6-1.25 inches.

Along with these scent scales, the complexity of how the nanoarchitectures interact with white light is very important to support their formation and rigorous reproduction in subsequent generations.

It has been demonstrated that these receptors and scales play an important role in the sexual communication of Polyommantinae butterflies in potential mate and competitor recognition.
