Dear Dr Seow,

Could you help me please, which Erites is this?

Also, I have checked the ID of this butterfly as Ragadia makuta (Stripped Ringlet)from the internet. Would appreciate your confirmation please.

Thank you again,

2. Ragadia makuta. This not an uncommon species in open forest & old rubber holdings.
It feeds on Selaginella the fine spiny growth used in wreaths & bridal decorations.
As this plant is related to ferns & toxic, the butterfly is probably unpalatable also.
It has a skippy flight over low growths in the forest.

TL Seow: Cheers.
