Photographed near Phrae, n Thailand today. I can only make this Nacaduba angusta. However there are several things I do not like about the ID, in that the pale striae are not as wide as any of the previous examples I have in Thailand, and the contrast of the marginal chevrons appears too pale and not strongly contrasting. Is this really Nacaduba angusta please?
