    Default Butterflies from Sabah, ID help please

    Hi Everyone!
    I went to Sabah, Kinabatangan in May this year to help the local community with reforestation efforts.
    Here are some of the butterflies I photographed during my free time. If possible, kindly help with the ID please. Thanks!

    Here's one last species. Is it the same as the previous Riodinid?
