    Default A Tanaecia from southern Thailand

    Only one image, from Phang-nga NP, southern Thailand. I appreciate this specimen is in terrible condition, but maybe there is some feature that can point to the species? I would guess this is either T. palguna or T. munda. But possibly T. pelea as it is such a variable species. I have little field experience in southern Thailand.

    Any help appreciated.

    Female Euthalia mahadeva zichrina.
    The brown eyes typically denotes Euthalia. T. pelea group have green eyes.

    The female of E. mhahdeva zichrina have the FW arrowheads rather thicken.

    Many thanks for the useful information. I had noticed the thicker arrowheads, but as I was thinking Tanaecia I was on the wrong track!
