Dacalana vui, also called the narrow-banded royal, is a species of lycaenid butterfly first described by Saito & Inayoshi in 2022.[1]
The species is large and features a narrow, pale band on its wings. Its recent sighting in India's Upper Siang Valley marks a significant extension of its known range.[1][2][3]
