:thumbsup: Correct.
The Green Oakblue has distinctive postdiscal band on both male and female . The female upper is purple blue versu the male's metallic green.
here is shots of the female:

Well the topside shows one of the suffusa group rapalas,
and the suffused flash has that really broad brown border, much broader than r. dieneces.:)

I was torn between suffusa and dieneces as well but there are a few traits that point to dieneces(to me):
- the greater extent of orange intruding into the forewing cell in dieneces
- the veins 2, 3 and 4 on the forewing above are not clearly blackened/delineated in dieneces
Can't comment based on their versos though, since they're almost identical.
