    1, Male Borbo cinnara.
    Just the fact that the HW postdiscal spots are in space 2, 3, & 6 plus the lack of a HW cellspot is a certainty this is B. cinnara.
    The three subapical spots are in an arc (ie a semicircle or curve).
    Compare the three males.

    Parnara bada. Subapical spots 6 & 7 in line, spot 8 slightly off or absent.

    2. Likely Caltoris bromus male.
    Subapical spots two, rounded.
    FW & HW of similar tone.

    Compare male Caltoris cormasa.
    FW subapical spots often three & small.
    HW darker & deeper with dark mottling, than the FW.
