Nice .
More please
We did see many skippers last trip.
CD6 looks like Thoressa cerata (Northern Ace**)
You can refer to our previous trip shots
-Loke
CD2 looks like P. stramineipennis & 3 should be P. murdava.
The male P. sreamineipennis is consistent in the better defined HW dark elliptical spots with a pale spot in the centre.
From India, Thailand ,& Malaya.

P. murdava have these HW dark spots ill-defined & appeared to be common in the Chiang Dao area.
