1 & 3 are correct.

2 is not Erionota which has red eye & white to the antennal club.

It looks like you have found a new species.
Do you have a better proflie view.

It appears to be a male Ge geta.
1. Long tapering antenna with a paler tip.
2. Slightly reddish eye.
3. Underside deep brown without spots.

3. Rapala manea male.

Rapala manea can be confusing when the band is broader.

In Rapala varuna , the band is always very broad ; on the HW the band & cellend bar almost touch.
The black spot is always round & the orange pale, off-coloured (sometimes encircled the black spot).
The blue-grey patch in space 1b is less extensive.

Rapala manea.
Underside is lightly purple-washed ; band is less wide & on HW some distance from the cellend bar.
Black spot is often squarish & the orange bright , covering only the inner part.
The blue-grey patch in space 1b is more extensive.
Male & female.

No. 2 worn Pemara pugnans.

The antenna does not match that of Ge geta which has a long recurved apiculus (tip).
Moreover with both sides available it can be confirmed there are spots present.
What appeared to be two cellspots in pix 2 are largely abrasion marks although one may be genuine (as in Pemara).
With zoom there are two subapical spots 6 & 7 and a bit of spot 8 on the right side.
A rectangular spot 4 is present.

The antenna & spot arrangement matched that of Pemara.
Note the eye of Pemara is also slightly reddish.
