By hindwing contour, I meant the shape of the hindwing is squarish ie the margin is more angular & not rounded as in the other species. This is clearly seen in Khew's examples.Originally Posted by MrGee
Great shots, Khew!
Seow, sorry to be a bit dim but I am still getting to grips with all the terminology associated with butterfly identification. Is the "squarish hindwing contour" you mention costal, towards the base, as shown clearly in Khew's first shot? And is the spot misalignment as shown below?
The misalignment is on the hindwing. In andersonii the dark costal streak cuts down & is in line with the cell-end bar.
In hecabe they are usually quite out of line. Again shown in Khew's examples.
