    no 4 is Geometridae, Ennominae - probably an Alcis or Arichanna sp.
    no 6 is Geometridae, Geometrinae - perhaps a Jodis sp.

    Hre a few more, from Chiang Dao Wildlife Sanctuary, 21st April 2014


    Sphingidae, Macroglossinae: Acosmeryx sp.



    Unidentified Geometridae
    The Acosmeryx is probably anceus; the geo is a Maxates sp. - another difficult genus (and for which voucher specimens are definitely needed)

    The 2nd looks correct for Tascinda orientalis, Castniidae. Note wingtip.
    4 species.

    Post 25,
    The first is a Pyralidae, a Vitessa species, but I can not get any further. I photographed this in SW Cambodia, near where you were, back in 2011. Your photo is so much better than mine, but that is not surprising.

    All the markings match this species V. suradeva.
