Caltoris Malaya?

[JitLeangFoo]

I bred the caterpillar feeding on Bamboo and it has the feature of Caltoris Malaya. The upper wings of the adult however seems to be different. Is it a Caltoris Malaya?

WOW. Need to hunt for more. This caterpillar was found at the Zoo.

Went back to the same Survey site and found this Caltoris and several caterpillars on the same Bamboo patch. Could not get a upper wing shot but is this C.Malaya?

One of the caterpillar we found looks like a female C.Malaya.
