    Pelopidas mathias male.

    There is a small HW cellspot in the right position indicating it is Pelopidas.
    HW spot 4 is abraded leaving a dark mark.

    Borbo cinnara typically have 3 HW spots 2, 3, & 6 & looks similar but HW is without a cellspot & FW broader.

    Pelopidas conjunctus is very large deeper brown, FW spots yellowish & HW spots whitish.
