I have a partially opened wing shot for the first time and the brown border seems to match that of Arhopala moorei busa (female) according to CP4. The purplish blue colour patch and the underside pattern of spots appear to match also. I am enclosing two views of the specimen. Would appreciate your vew on my ID. Thanks.
