Neptis harita or Neptis omeroda

As Les noted on my Flickr photostream, this butterfly could be incorrectly identified:

He suggests to ask for more confirmations :)

It is the hindwing submarginal band that has made me question the original ID of N. harita.

N. harita is the only one of 3 brown Neptis with the hindwing band catenulate ie forming a chain of 'rings'.

This plus the quadrate spot in space 2 meant this is N. omeroda.

Thank Seow. It was a previous comment of yours, a while back, on another thread that brought this to my attention. It seems I have learnt the difference, thanks to your clear explanations.:thumbsup: I don't think I will need to refer these two on should I come across them (and H. ilira) again. Thanks once more.

Thanks, Les and Seow for the always precious suggestions :cheers:
