A previously unrecognized cryptic taxon within the Eastern United States Celastrina (Tutt) species complex.

A unique population of Celastrina is described from the highest elevations, 2784-6643’ (848-2027 m.), of the southern Appalachian Mountains, centered on Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Life history aspects are still incomplete, calling for future field research.
