    Dr Seow, thanks for looking over it. C. bernardus is an extremely variable species. I'll leave them as this one for now.


    I'm getting into my most important shots / sightings now. After seeing Lemon's gorgeous photos of the Bornean Sapphire (Heliophorus kiana), I knew I needed to hunt that species down. Unfortunately, they didn't appear as frequently as Lemon had encountered. I only saw a few individuals, all badly tattered besides one female which stayed very high up. They were seen individually along the stream, basking on the low shrubs at the banks. So, the photos I got are nothing like what Lemon achieved - but at least I saw it! It was the only endemic lycaenid I saw. That just means there's a great reason to go back! This is a male.
