Sorry I couldn't post this last night, as I wished.
Pic 1 is a shot of the male of my mystery Blue (I can see a little bit of the blue of the upperside). Now that I have checked like 200 pics of Escher's Blue and Chapman's Blue, I know exactly why the orange lunules of my mystery Blue look so odd to me. Both Escher's and Chapman's lunules have the black dot well surrounded by white. Most of the lunules of my mystery's only have white surrounding the upper side of the black dot, creating a similar effect to the lunules of the Plebejus species.
Pic 2 is a classical Escher's Blue and pic 3 a classical Chapman's Blue, for comparison.
