The Common Lineblue Prosotas nora is a species of lycaenid butterfly found in Asia. Male Upperside: purplish-brown or purplish with a dark tint, some specimens brown with, a very slight purplish sheen seen only in certain lights. Fore and hind wings: nearly uniform, both with slender black anticiliary lines, the hind wing in addition with the costal and dorsal margins paler; in most specimens with a sub-terminal black spot in interspace 2, sometimes seen only by transparency from the underside; tail black tipped with white. Underside: brown, hoary, brownish or pale dull brown. Forewing: a subbasal pair of transverse white strigae, a shorter pair along the discocellulars and a discal pair; these strigae all narrowly edged on the inner sides of each pair with fuscous which gives the appearance of transverse bands somewhat darker than the ground-colour.
