David, lovely shots from you too.:thumbsup:
You were at Fraser's Hill a few days early - I will be there from Monday 11 July afternoon to 14 July morning @ Singapore House - mostly work and discussion but I will find time to shoot.
At the moment I have an empty room (for two people). You can return there if you want :bsmile:
Let me know soon if anyone wants to stay at Singapore House.
Thanks, LC.Quote:

Athyma reta is correct.
The Ypthima is Y. fasciata following the key, though the spots are rather large. Saleint features; 2 strong inner bands; all spots are more or less in line. (in others like horsfieldi, upper 2 spots well out of line with the rest.). Female here. Gender difference ?
Two other Ypthima in Borneo.
Y. abnormis; Sarawak ; no clue. ?valid taxon.
Y. hanburyi; Sabah ; hindwing underside almost spotless.
Ixias pyrene undatus, since there is only one spp.
Post 130
This should be Neorina lowii since there is no other spp with a similar juxstaposition of those white spots.

Thanks very much, Seow, for the identifications.
Les,
Did you record this species? These are lousy shots but I think the butterfly to be Hypolimnas anomala. Is that correct?

Mycalesis horsfieldi. (thanks, Seow)

Thanks, David. No, these were not on the list. This is why I will be shortly sending you all a provisional list for each of you to add those species I am not aware of.:police: :)
Mind you, I am not too sure of which Mycalesis sp. this is at the moment:embrass: .
The Bushbrown is M. perseoides.
The indentation is similar to perseus,but more gradually deepens, & the spots in space 1b, 2 & 3 are in line.
On rechecking, M. perseoides is not found in Borneo, so this is M. horsfieldi.
Note in horsfieldi the spots in space 1b, 2 & 3 are almost perfectly in line. In perseoides it is slightly out of line, while in perseus it is distinctly out of line.
(Note: there are 2 spots in space 1b; it is sufficient to see the alignment of the upper spot with the spots in space 2 & 3)

I have, today, emailed all members of our party the provisional list for checking/amendments. If you do not receive it, please email me, and I'll send it again.
Can anyone enlighten me as to the current standing of the Kallima specimen, as shown in post #47.
I have seen both Kallima limborgii buxtoni and Kallima buxtoni used. Which is currently in vogue?
