Butterflies of Temburong Forest Part 2
#3 A worn out amphimuta group Arhopala , probably A. amphimuta . From the blue markings it's not alica
#4 Arhopala democritus olinda . It's the only one in its group to have white spots in place of the marginal wavy lines in the other spp. Also the shape of the middle discal spot on the hindwing
#5 Ypthima pandocus sertorius
#6 Mycalesis orseis borneensis
#7 Mycalesis amoena , endemic

Bornean species can be tough since there are many endemics & few references to rely on.
1. Eurema alitha gradiens . Like E. hecabe with two FW cellspots, HW postdiscal spots mostly rounded.
Range Sumatra, Borneo & eastwards but not in Malaya.
Taiwan.
