Miletus chinesis learchus ???

[Silverstreak]

It does not match any of the following species upper:

Miletus gopara gopara

Miletus biggsii biggsii

Miletus symethus petronius

The upper looks very similar to the upper of C&P4 Plate 33 fig 3 & 4 , Miletus chinesis learchus

Though the species is/was supposed to be found on the northern part of Malay Peninsula.

I have quite a range of specimens from various places that look like this, Sunny. However, according to Dr Kirton, the genus is very variable, from a full white forewing patch, to none at all! I have quite a number from Mt Faber that look very strange, including a mating pair, but no luck in ID so far, except perhaps with dissection.

[Psyche]

It is too similar to the female M. biggsii especially with the darkened veins.

Thank you Khew and Dr. Seow for the inputs!

It is a very troublesome tribe to identify!
