    The 3rd is interesting but too dark to make out if the hindwing is evenly ochreous. We'll just have to assumed it is P. mathias.

    Ha! No sight of butterflies at KK, only saw the Cycad Blue and this was shot using my P&S at the Kinabalu Park.

    Looks like you got a rarity.

    This can only be Ragadia annulata since it is not R. makuta umbrata, the only other possibility.

    Thank you for the ID suggestion, Seow.


    Went to Tampines Eco Green after seeing many nice photos being posted here. Also did a brief lousy write-up on FB.

    Very eventful day at Eco Green.
    Many species!
    In the spirit of science, there really is no such thing as a 'failed experiment.' Any test that yields valid data is a valid test.

    Nice shots, Chee Ming.
    I guess the Silverlines are still out there but the number of pristine one may be dwindling fast. Their "decoy" strategy seems to be working well but sorry to see them in such a badly tattered state...
    But, at least they survive.

    yes Mark, quite a few species in the park. Too bad that I didnt have enough time to rally explore it.

    Isn't it life, Loke? Thanks.

    Nice article you did on your FB, Chee Ming.

    How come you didn't go there with your bestest friend?
