A non-standard light CP-odd Higgs boson could induce a slight (but observable) lepton universality breakdown in Upsilon leptonic decays. Moreover, the mixing between such a pseudoscalar Higgs and $\eta_b$ states might shift the mass levels of the latter, thereby changing the values of the $m_{\Upsilon(nS)}-m_{\eta_b(nS)}$ splittings predicted in the standard model. Besides, also the $\eta_b$ width could be broader than expected, with potentially negative consequences for its discovery in both $e^+e^-$ and hadron colliders.
