1. Mycalesis janardana opaculus.
2. Neptis ida ida (Igarashi & Fukuda recorded and also illustrated it's life history, Pl. 175, page 415, 1997).
3. Euploea redtenbacheri caracina or Euploea westwoodii westwoodii. Any cell spots on undersides?

Thank you for the id and correction. I can not see, or recall, any cellspots, but this is the best photo I have!

Thank you. One last one that required identification.

I know it is a Symbrenthia sp. but not sure which one.

I have one final photo left after this but will hold it back as it is, to me, my favourite of the whole trip, and I know its ID!

This will be the last batch of photos from me. Till we meet again Sulawesi. :D

2. Euthalia aconthea (Note: Figured butterfly don't look like E. amanda at all. Although Vane-Wright & R. de Jong stated E. aconthea's range is southern Sulawesi, that doesn't mean it will not expend it's range towards the north or any individual may dispersal to the north).
