    Thank you so much. A bit of a rewrite is necessary from me . Just one question, is it Potanthus hetaerus or P. serina, as I have seen both names in use?

    I have found that several species which are primarily montane in Malaysia are found at sea level here, such as Kaniska canace.

    Treadway et al have found both the Phillipine race hetaerus and the Sundanian race serina co-existing in the Tawi-Tawi islands, so it is necessary to considered them as seperate species. As there is no other subspecies the taxon here need only be known as P. serina.
