    The Rhimphaliodes is R. magrostigma (Crambidae), at least that is what I have labelled my photos of that species.

    Post 1 No. 1.

    Pomasia species. Geometridae. Larentinae. Eupitheciini.
    Note the FW apices are very rounded. The FW basal area & the HW have a paler look.
    It looks similar to this, but there are several similar species.

    An example of Pomasia salutaris to show the similar patterns.

    Yes. I knew I had seen it before, but could not find the file! Eoopyhla species are quite similar, and I have deleted my earlier comment.

    It is Talanga sexpunctalis alright. Crambidae. Spilomelinae.
    From HK.

    Likewise. No. 3 is also correctly Rhimphaliodes macrostigma. Crambidae. Spilomelinae.
    From Australia.
    http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.co...crostigma.html

    Both species are wide-ranging from Asiatic mainland to Australia.

    Derambila species, tentative ID Derambila lumenaria. Geometridae. Desmobathrinae, Desmobathrini. India to Sundaland.
    It is probably this one shot in Indonesia .Note similar postmedials (iecpostdiscal spots in butterflies.)

    Two other with the about the same range, D. saponaria & fragilis have paler markings.
