2. Malaccan Caerulean (Jamides malaccanus malaccanus)
18 April 2011
3. Common Grass Yellow
Hmm... can't see the photos.
Ok. Can see the pic now.
Beautiful shots :cheers:
why cannot see photo?
Nice photos. It is interesting to see the Yamfly shot with the ants.
It could be due to heavy network traffic or the image source/server was busy at that moment. The browser will not load the images after timeout :cheers:Quote:

This is either celeno, pura or zebra. J. celeno may be ruled out because the white striae are fairly well-aligned.
This individual is unsual in that the submarginal striae on the forewing are strongly blue-tinged. This is not normally seen in J. pura and suggest the correct ID may be J. zebra. Unfortunately there are no pic for comparison.

A lot of things to learn about butterflies. Much harder than identifying birds. phewwww....
