Subfamily Theclinae is a group of butterflies, including the hairstreaks and elfins, in the family Lycaenidae. There are many tropical hairstreaks as well as a number found in the Americas. Tropical hairstreaks often have iridescent blue coloration above, caused by reflected light from the structure of the wing scales rather than by pigment. Hairstreaks from North America are commonly brown above. Few hairstreaks are migratory.
