China Butterflies ID (1 Viewer)

Trapped in mist ***s
These butterflies were photographed in Fujian province of China during May 2016. With no definite butterfly field guide for China, its very hard to come to any conclusion. Most of the time the reference books are from the Indian Subcontinent and SE Asia but they doesn't cover majority of the Chinese ones.

The blues are extremely diff, any putative names would be helpful. The skipper looks very close to small/lesser Dartlet but the yellow marking are entirely different.

ID_1 - The closest thing i can come to is Indigo Flash
Edit : ID_2 - Common Three-ring?
