Hmm... Federick's shot is another UFO. Quite different and most likely a tailless species.

There's an article in CP's Taiwanese link. Would make some interesting reading if we knew what the article was about... Maybe our specimen here is also the Philippine subspecies instead of the Malaysian one?

I have both editions. The first edition comes in two volumes whilst the 2nd edition is combined into one single book. The one in the link is the 2nd edition. The printing and colour for the 1st edition is, however much better.Originally Posted by Common Rose
Up for loan if any of you interested.
There are two copies in TPY library, but one has some missing pages.

Here's how Fleming's "Butterflies of West Malaysia and Singapore" 1st Editions Vol I and II look like.
lucky shots. was tired after lunch, so wondering if we are looking at Nacaduba. then after a long list from the Australian website, found this Taiwanese website. And, it look pretty similar (but not 100%).Originally Posted by Sky Blue
Previously, I was comparing against Nacaduba biocellata from Australia. My gut feeling is that we might be looking at yet another invading species given the new plants introduced on the island. :P
