These blue butterflies are so hard to identify - there are too many of them and they look so much alike that I have given up trying. If you know them better, there are a few of them from Turkey or elsewhere, which have been identified as Polyommatus icarus, but I am not convinced it is the case and I cannot do better either so if you are willing to check them this is the link to the species.
