    It is a worn female Caltoris cormasa. (note abdominal tip & FW shape)
    The two subapical spots are small & buff coloured; antenna with a pale area typical of most Caltoris.
    A deeper rust brown colour though most of the scales are abraded.

    The colour varies widely in photos.
    Two males & two female for comparison.Male have a noticeable contrast between FW & HW.
