    Is this Polytremis lubricans? Recorded in Singapore.

    It is hard to judge the colour tone of the underside when worn.
    The spots are quite yellow & suggest at once Caltoris cormasa.

    C. cormasa; Underside more rusty red brown ;spots yellower.

    Thank you, Dr Seow. I will take it as C.cormasa since C.bromus is not in BC list.
