Striae seems lighter; post discal band broken at one place. Apologies for poor shot. Couldn't get close for a good shot!

Male Ionolyce helicon.

Both I. helicon & N. beroe have the costal spot above the innermost FW band missing.
The FW postdiscal band of I. helicon is usually broken at all veins , variable but the last spot of the band is shifted in.
The female have angular HW.
