1. Pelopidas mathias female.
Typical with grey & dark shadings.
2. Probably Caltoris cormasa male.
Baoris & Caltoris are about the same size.
The appearance is too reddish.
A top view may not show the pale area properly on the antenna.
C. cormasa.

Hi Doctor Seow,
I once again have a couple of skipper to ask for ID
1 - Attachment 27739
Is this a lesser dart? Pothantus Omaha
2 - Attachment 27740
Detached dart?
3-Attachment 27741
Contigious swift?
4 - Attachment 27742
I suppose this is small branded swift, pelopidus mathias?
-This skipper is very big in size, about one and a half section of a thumb
5-Attachment 27743
I thought this is a conjoined swift but i am not sure
6 - Attachment 27744
Also not sure about this fella
Appreciate all the help i can get!
Regards
Zick
