Azanus ubaldus, the African Baby Blue or Ubaldus Blue, is a small butterfly species found in tropical Africa, including South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. Its wingspan measures 20-30 mm. The upper wings are pale blue with dark brown edges and white spots, while the lower wings display pale blue with dark brown veins.

This butterfly inhabits grasslands, savannahs, and open woodlands. Active during warm weather, they feed on nectar from flowers. Males engage in territorial battles, while females lay eggs on host plants, typically grasses and legumes.

The life cycle consists of four stages: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult. Caterpillars feed on specific plants.
