2. Pyroneura natuna.

Pyroneura natuna & helena are very similar & some authors do not separate the two.

P. helena FW space 5 with a hyaline spot at the end of the opalescent streak.
HW veins yellow.
This would be somethimg like in P. latoia.
https://thaibutterflies.com/Butterfl...oneura-latoia/

P. natuna' FW without a hyaline spot in space 5.
HW veins orange-yellow.

Additional notes.
P. helena range Sumatra, Malaya & Borneo.
P. natuna Borneo (including Natuna) Malaya & S. Thailand.

Under Eliot these would be Pyroneura natuna, not P. helena.
Note records from Thailand state either as P. helena natuna or just P. natuna.
