Thanks SC.
I overlooked this species, no wonder I could not find a good match.

It'll take some time before Dr Kirton is able to establish what subspecies this is. May not be the Malaysian one in C&P4 (which does not show the underside). So we'll just name it at the species level. There seems to be a stable population in Ubin, from the number of shots taken of it on different outings over the past year.
