The Magnificent Oakblue - Arhopala anthelus graham

The Violet Awl - Hasora leucospila leucospila

I refuse to believe you are on KPG!:grin2: Have you found a new location to visit on the Island?

Magnificent Oakblue!!! Fantastic, I know I have never seen that here, can't miss it, can you.

I think you have a second +1 for our Archipelago. The Deramas species looks like a female to me owing to the rounded shape of the forewing. If so, it can not be D. nolens pasteuri, which I have found on Samui, and must be D. livens evansi, owing to the lack of an orange crown to a black tornal spot on the hindwing.

I'll be very interested in any comment Seow may like to make on this one.

You know the location, a little farther (1km) from the place you saw the Simiskina.

Do you want to come with me tomorrow?

:whistle:

Wonderful photos, Antonio. Looks like you have finding a number of interesting species this year.

Regards,
David

The female Deramas does fit the description of D. livens very well.
The underside is a rich reddish to purple brown & the tornal orange is practically obsolete.
