Many thanks, Dr Seow.

As a reference, I have attached info on Y. confusa and Y. watsoni from Pisuth's book. The subspecies watsoni which is found in Chiangmai has very small ocelli on the HW, is the size vairable?

Practically all species have some variations in the size of the ocelli.

Despite what Pisuth stated, there are dsf of Y. watsoni.

Y. watsoni watsoni was described by Moore , type location Burma (Myanmar).

From Moore's book.

Pisuth's image looks like dsf with its small ocelli & strong fasciae (bandings).


TL Seow: Cheers.

1 Chersonesia intermedia rahrioides.

SSp rahrioides have a broader postdiscal band(with the dashes) & looks similar to C. rahria.

Dr Seow, in Pisuth's book, he mentioned that 'this species has been revised and raised up from subspecies of intermedia to a species', so should it be Chersonesia rahrioides instead of Chersonesia intermedia rahrioides?
