Spotted two Arhopala flying around a tree on a steep slope about 3-4m away from the forest trail. Due to the difficult terrain, I was not able to get any closer. The butts were displaying typical ovipositing behaviour on the leaves. I only managed a few decent distant shots at high ISO.
Pic 1 shows the underside which has the typical markings for the cleander group of Arhopala; pics 2 and 3 show the upperside purple patches with rather unique "wavy" or "jagged" upper edge.
