Isn't the hindwing spotted below?
Based on that I thought it might be a very worn Echinargus isola

Bazochii is more blotchy brow
Bazochii is more blotchy brown below. Althought the underside pictures are worn looking, the general pattern seems to match, especially the postmedian band. Also blue hindwings with little blue on the forewing is much more of a hairstreak characteristic in the US.
