    Default Some Shots at SF

    First two shots are of the same specimen (edited. Thanks les) appear to me as different species. (Should delete this)


    1. Arhopala major major ?






    2. Cupha erymanthis lotis (Rustic)




    Last two shots appear to be two different species. What do you all think ?

    I agree, the Cupha underside is a fantastic shot.

    What makes you think the first two are different species? I've studied the pics hard, and can not find anything significant to lead me to that idea.

    The last two do indeed appear to be different. What size were the specimens (approx like what known species in size)?

    Les, first two shots are of the same specimen.
    Sorry, I forgot to delete that statement as I initially intended to post the last two shots first.
