4 is Orsotriaena jopas jopas. Note absent of tornal ocelli.
TL Seow:cheers:
All the Mycalesis spp. have the tornal ocelli in space 1b.
The female of O. jopas have a diffuse band.

O. medus have the usual big spots.

PS. How do you differentiate between J. aratus & fractilinea? I find the undersides practically identical.
Re post 113 - So the two Cyrestis specimens are different, Hooray!!! Thank you.:gbounce:
I think that, apart from my notorious post #64 Satyrid, we are up to date with IDs, so I can start posting again!
1&2) Pareronia tritaea tritaea (male)
3&4) Pareronia tritaea tritaea (female)
5&6) Papilio ascalaphus ascalaphus - Typical feeding Papilio, never still!
7&8) Vindula erota banta - though there is some talk of upgrading the Sulawesi specimens to a distict species which would be Vindula boetonensis banta!
I cann't see the images of O. jopas and O. medus posted.
J. fractilinea has a bluish tinge (underside), larger and is from Sulawesi but J. aratus without any bluish, smaller as illustrated by D''Abrera and distributions are Malay Peninsula, Java, Sumatra, Borneo and Palawan (but 'DÁbrera have not indicated it is from Sulawesi). The forewing uppersides of males (the forewing marginal black stripe extended to the apex for J. fractilinea and without a submarginal faint black stripe) and females have more different features.
