Land of Surf, Sun and Padi.

Went for a short break last week in Bali and stayed at the Bali Barat National Park for 2 days. Sharing some shots taken during my stay there.

Will try to provide ID at a later time. But any help will be great. :cheers:

Nice!:thumbsup:
The first two are Tirumala septentrionis myrsilos.
The Pierrot is the usual Castalius rosimon rosimon.

The others I would not want to speculate about. The last two look interesting, and I am looking forward to seeing what they are!

Nelson: Looks like a fun vacation. William

The butterflies in Bali are the same to that of Java.

1. Tirumala septentrionis
2. likely Rapala varuna ( broad band, purple-washed.)
3. Castalius rosimon.
4. Ixias venilia
5. Belenois java.

TL Seow:cheers:

The id of no. 5 has suprised me. It looks nothing the Belenois java I'm used to. I had been thinking along the lines of a Cepora sp.

You are right.
It is Cepora temena female.
The black veins threw me off. The male does have the black veins.
I thought it was a Balinese ssp. of B. java.
