All three are Lasippa heliodore females.
The delineation of the tongue in black ,stronger in heliodore & weaker in tiga works fairly well in P. Malaysia & Singapore.
Elsewhere it is not so reliable.
The width of FW submarginal spot 3 is still the best guide. The width is stated in the set specimen.
Lasippa tiga FW submarginal spot 3 is always at least 2X wider than that of spot 4 above it.
Male ( FW band running wide on the lower margin.
