Some Butterfly Sighting Records in 2012

[Bluebottle]

Seems like a fun and enjoyable trip
I haven't seen Tufted Jungle King in Gua Tempurong before. Did you guys venture into the woods on the right side of the toilet?

[Peacock Royal]

Yes, we did. But they have trimmed the plants there and behind the stream.

Thanks Simon. A few more shots.

7. Cethosia penthesilea methypsea (Plain Lacewing)


8. Cepora iudith malaya


9. Appias nero figulna (Orange Albatross)


10. Poritia erycinoides phraatica


11. Jamides philatus subditus


12. Chersonesia intermedia intermedia (Correction : Should be Chersonesia rahria rahria) Thanks Dr Seow.


13 and 14 : Rohana parisatis siamensis - male

[Psyche]

12 is Chersonesia rahria rahria.

C. rahria : forewing submarginal band irregular, upper part with one black dash/spot.
Hindwing submarginal band typically wider than the inner 2 bands; tornus without a black mark.

C. intermedia.: forewing submarginal band irregular, upper part with 2 black dashes.
Hindwing submarginal band hardly wider than the inner 2 bands; tornus with a black mark to the margin.

(Note C&P4's key lines 5 & 6 are in error.)

Correction: Ignore above ID notes; there is too much variations for it to be correct.

[Blue Jay]

17 to 21:

[Psyche]

19 & 20 Appias albina albina.
This is the tricky albatross which looks so much like Saletara.
In Saletara the last vein at the apex (vein 9) is very short, & arise from a tiny fork (from vein 7) close to the margin.

Many thanks Dr Seow.

22. Chersonesia intermedia intermedia - I hope I got it correct this time.


23. Bassarona teuta rayana (The Banded Marquis) ???


24. Halpe porus (Moore's Ace) ?


25. Halpe hauxwelli


26. Rohana parisatis siamensis female


27. Troides amphrysus ruficollis (Malayan Birdwing)


28. Troides brookiana albescens (Rajah Brooke's Birdwing) -


29. Lamproptera curius curius (White Dragontail)

[Commander]

The Birdwing is Troides helena. The spots of T. amphrysus are usually larger and often conjoined. Your earlier shot in post #60 shows the upperside of a female Malayan Birdwing.
