Baoris oceia?

[JitLeangFoo]

Is this the Baoris oceia? Looks like it has a hair tuft in the cell on top of a scent pouch. Photos of both sides.

Yes. It should be Baoris oceia.
Both species have a hair tuft in the male.

Colouration may not be an accurate guide.

Baoris farri; In India & S. China, B. oceia is absent & so B. farri is more reliably IDed.
Male often have a full complement of spots (Perhaps not in Singapore).
Generally lighter brown.
FW outer margin straight or slightly convex.
Yunnan.
