A couple of additions to the Bassarona species already shown.

Armpitta dioscorides camertes (Bush Hopper) Male - I did take photos of the upperside, but I had forgotten to change the camera settings, and the colours are blown to high heaven.:embrass: :cry: When I found the specimen again, it refused to open its wings.:mad2:

Euploea algea menetriesii (Long-branded Blue Crow) - Strangely for such a widespread butt, this is the first time I have been able to positively identify this species. It should be found on KS!
