Dr Seow, appreciate your help in identifying this butterfly. Is it an Arhopala spp? Thanks.

Regards
Samuel

Arhopala major. worn.
The arrangement of the FW postdiscal spots in an arc & the HW spots 5 ,6, & 7 put it in the amphimuta group.
Note the V spot is shaped like a J ,with a longer lower arm.
This is typical of A. major.

TL Seow: Cheers.
