    I think there may be a cultural difference between the way westerners, like me, and orientals, like the majority of members here, tend to treat getting things wrong. Certainly it is the case in Thailand, where being wrong is a matter of losing face. To me, being wrong teaches me me an awful lot more than getting things right, accidentally. I like being shown to be wrong!

    Anyway, enough of that, Antonio has already started on the butts of Tangkoko nature reserrve, and I am still at Kali Waterfall, the day before!

    My Kali pics not shown before:
    1) Lexias aeetes aeetes. I think this was the only specimen seen.
    2&3) Chersonesia rahria celebensis. As above.
    4&5) Looks like an Eggfly, but it was enormous. I seem to recall that there is a Papilionid that mimic the eggfly, but I may be mistaken, my brain is misbehaving badly at the moment! Very skittish, and I hope someone has a much better upperside than mine, which was taken as a great distance. - Correction - Hypolimnas diomea diomea
    6) An Ypthima sp. - Ypthima nynias nynias
    7) Another Ypthima. - Ypthima loryma
    8) A Tiger, can't get the species for certain. - Danaus ismare alba
    9) Lycaenid. Help! - Zizula hylax hylax
    10) Distinctive underside, the white forewing bar appears different to those shown in VW&dJ. - Lamasia lyncides lyncides
