Jerome, can you number your individual photos (post #, photo #). It does help enormously.

Post #1, photo #2, I agree with the Genus, but there are a number of similar species, so I would not want to go further. I have a number similar photos, that may be the same species, but also be different ones, I do not know how variable they can be! I gave up on Geometridae a long, long time ago.

No. 1 is most likely to be Pomasia reticulata .Geometridae. Larentinae. Eupitheciini. Mergui to Malaya & Borneo.

The Pomasia are little collected. Most species consist of a few specimens.
By eliminating the strictly montane , Bornean endemic & obvioiusly different forms the remainder are P. reticulata, luteata ,& gelastis .

P. reticulata is the most widely collected & is thought to be a largely coastal species.

Most likely Perixera spp. Geomeridae. Sterrhinae, Cosymbiini.

It does not match correctly any of the description or image of Perixera in MoB, perhaps an extra-Borneo spp. like P. obrinaria.
It looks like the one below except for the heavy fasciation (banding/striping).

No match with other related genera, eg. Cyclophora, Mesotrophe, & Scopula.

Pangrapta cf perturbans . Erebidae, Pangraptinae. Range ?

(cf , Latin for conferre, ie. to compare, meaning it is close to this spp. & could possibly be it.)

There is little resources to check for Pangrapta on the net.

Quite right. It should be No. 5.

No. 6 is of course the Talanga.
