Jerome, without you providing the genera and/or the family I would have an extremely hard time figuring it out.

33. Tephriopsis divulsa is right . Single species. The orientation of the ends of the bell-shaped mark varies.

40, 41. H. pudens FW lines reach costa at a less acute angle.

42 correct as Ischyja subreducta darker more purplish ,with diffuse FW submarginal fascia.
43. correct as I. merapok.

44. should be Ischyja manlioides.

50. Dysaethria cf. exprimataria.
The features matched correctly.
This species is now recorded in Malaya.
http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-8/...eminae_9_3.php

51. Maxates coelataria.
The features matched correctly. It sems there forms which are green to brown.
http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-9/...trini_42_1.php

53. Maxates sp.
This probably the same as the single female captured in the Sabah lowland.
The outer margin of the medial band, broadly brown is irregular.
http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-9/...rini_42_19.php
In Maxates thetydaria it is more or less straight.
http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-9/...trini_42_3.php
May be a lowland variant.
