    Yes, they are both E. camurius..
    The broad white band, its position on the wings all match correctly. The 2nd specimen is very worn& the orange markings faded.

    E.camurius is readily IDed because ir is the only species in the genus with a broad white band.
    The band also makes a sharp triangle in space 1b.

    The others have a narrow white band which do nt forms a sharp trangle in space 1b.

    Huang made several collecting espeditions to the Tibetan side.
    In the link below in colour plate IV fig 29 is E camurius. fig 27 E.longicaudatus, fig 28 E. bieti.

    Another species found in Tibet Assam, Manipur & surrounding areas E. tsangkei is now Teratozephyrus tsangkei.
    This resembles E. camurius with a very thin white band.
    Below Fig 55, 56.

    Huang also shows a torn female at plate IV fig 30.
