ID help on various Neptis and other species of Meghalaya
Dear Dr. Seow sir, I and my friend have photographed the following butterflies in Meghalaya, North-east India.
I have tried to id some of them based on my limited knowledge. Your help in identification is highly appreciated.
In one of the previous post by our dear Sunny Chir on my behalf, the below Neptis was identified as Neptis capnodes pandoces in this forum. You can find the link of that post below
