Yes, I shot it at Bukit Brown but the hahbitat there will be affected once the construction of a road starts.

Congrats, Federick and Lemon for this new find!

it was federick who found it and i happened to bump into him just after he shot it. it was flying around with a couple of other small lycaenids.

i didn't manage to shoot it but i did see one specimen after federick left.

i remember shooting one at fraser's hill.

Bukit Brown?
Seems like it's well established and has been hiding all this while

Congrats on the +1, Fed. This fella's markings a unique enough to ID it. Next time you know what to do - make full use of your NParks permit!

Now to get a better confirmation of the other Prosotas that Horace stumbled upon earlier, P. aluta.
