1. Small Yellow Moth.

It is a Lyclene species, Arctiinae ,Erebidae.
Among the ones with similar markings this one is unique in lacking a black band crossing the middle of the forewing.
The only species like that in Moths of Borneo is L. biseriata which at the moment is endemic to Borneo.

2. Tiny Graybrown Moth.
Geometridae.
Here it gets difficult but Scopula (subfamily Sterrhinae) species have the right size. colour & markings.

No 5. - Cyana species ( as mentioned in the comments part of the Project Noah page). These can be very difficult to differentiate, and this is a large genus. I would not want to go further.

No 6. - I do not know how variable the markings of this species can be, but it looks very much like Eurrhyparodes tricolaris (Crambidae)

Thanks to everyone that helped me to ID these moths....

* No. 8 clear = Lime Butterfly Caterpillar (4th Instar) - Papilio demoleus malayanus

Few more to go...

# 4 could be Cyclosiella dulcicola or something closely related

Good one Jan but the spelling is C. dulcicula not -cola.

I did a check & it could be a sibling species C. dulciculoides recorded from Borneo 2001.

As stated in the text the yellow edging is broader in C. dulciculoides.

This image from peninsular Malaysia have a broader yellow rim than the one you shot in Thailand.

PS. C. dulciculoides is recorded from Thailand so that it is even more likely to be this species.

Both species appeared to be unknown from peninsular Malaysia at the moment.
