Both are right.

The FW band is normally angled in at the top but can almost straight in E. teuta teuta (ie similar to E. recta).
A useful confirmation is the outer margin of the HW band is irregular in E. teuta & straight & regular in E. recta

1.Caleta roxus porhus. It is hard to tell the subspecies actually.

Thx a lot - so I had them right except for the subspecies of Loxura atymnus. I thought ssp. continentalis because I thought ssp. fuconius was more red, but I did not take underside differences into account and geographically it should also be fuconius :-)

Last few nymphalids, I am uncertain of the ssp. of Cynthia cocytus, judging from geography mine should be Cynitia cocytus ssp. cocytus, but the size and the shape of the white spots better fit Cynitia cocytus ssp. ambrysus. I guess it is just individual variation and that it is actually nominate subspecies after all?

Can this Lexias be identified despite being half hidden and very worn?

1. Cynitia cocytus cocytus. In ssp cocytus the HW arrowheads in female poorly defined.
In ambrysus they are better defined & also shows on the upperside.
