    Default Caltoris vs Baoris

    The image to me seems to be a species of Caltoris.
    They are difficult to id without Upperside images or as the last resort genitalia dissections!
    cheers!

    I agreed they are both Caltoris.

    I can now say with confidence the first one with its rusty red colouration and black-tipped brown antennae is C. cormasa.

    The 2nd with the ochreous brown colour and an upper cell spot noticeable (meaning it will have 2 cell-spots, i.e. a colon) looks like C. bromus.
