Which Mycalesis is this?

[Tai LA]

The orange hue of the wings and the ocelli without the yellow rings make it unusual for me. A faded specimen, perhaps?

It's probably a seasonal morph of one of the species. This genus is very prone to that.

I don't think there is a Mycalesis with white rings.
This & the orangey tint appeared to be the effect of slanting sunlight.

It is probably Mycalesis distant. The wingshape is much distorted.
