Les,
Just received my copy of "Butterflies of Borneo" from UK, and the plate for Sky Blue shows the male to have the same dark greyish brown coloration for the undersides.

We'll go with the Sky Blue ID then. The last specimen that I got was from the SF area deep in the forests. So they're around somewhere, just not as common as in Bunker Trail.

Great!

Thanks, Khew and of course Les (for suggesting lunch could wait and go on to explore that part of the trail), for another +1 for me.
