Correction ; Malayan Swift Caltoris malaya.
Caltoris is often very difficult since the colour varies a lot in photos.
The FW is raised high enough so no FW spot is present.
Other features.
FW & HW more uniform colour.
Subapical spots mostly 1-two vs 2- 3 in C. cormasa.
Antennal cub mostly black, without a larger pale area usually visible in C. cormasa.
Underside rusty brown ,less reddish.
Examples of C. malaya. male.
