    Default ID help with these butterflies please

    Taken by a friend, Mr Li Zhi Guo...he doesn't know English..mandarin speaking. Posting with his permission the two butterflies for identifying. The bottom picture looks like a Charaxes sp, taken in KL's Butterfly Park. The top one was taken in Chiangrai

    TL Seow: Cheers.
    PS. There are forms of C. bernardus with the HW black line.
    So probably just a form of C. bernardus.
