This is a typical Nacaduba kurava male.
There are three main bands on the FW.
The FW submarginal spots have rounded margins.
There is always a spot on the costa above the innermost FW band.

Nacaduba berenice.
This always have a costal spot above the innermost FW band (as in kurava).
The spots are more irregular.
The dark lines within the bands are strongly developed.
