Antenna without a pale area.
UnH veins somewhat prominent.
Probab;y Baoris ssp.
The large head look is likely due to a perspective distortion.

An alea subgroup member.
Despite the oblique view, the FW margin is noticeably convex.
HW spot 6 large.
Probably Arhopala selta.

This does look good for Rapala scintilla.
The two species are terribly confusing in fieldshots.
Likely R. scintilla is largely overlooked.

Rapala scintilla.
Male with only the HW reflective blue.
Underside ground greyish brown but difficult to judge.

Probably Arhopala antimuta.
HW spot 7 is about on top of spot 6 and markings weak.
3. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/307417339
Arhopala amphimuta.
The markings are of the amphimuta grou.
HW V spot is well-formed and the 4 postdiscal spots above it in a straight line.
Match the typical male very well.
