    Default Some butterflies from Eastern China (part 1)

    I was recently on a trip (not specifically butterflies) to eastern China. I know nothing of the butterflies there, other than what can be found on a web search. I would be grateful for some help or confirmations on these images. I'll split this across a couple of posts so as not to make it lengthy.
    Many thanks

    It has a white band not seen in the others.
