    PJ2. It is Allotinus unicolor. Spot 6 (biggest spot) on the hindwing lies well to the inside of spot 7.

    PJ3. Note the subspecific name. Dusun tua, Malay for old orchard , after the Sungai(or spelt Sungei) Tua (River Old) area.

    PJ4. A wonderful find. Amathusia perakana perakana.
    This is easily ID'ed as the hindwing pale subdiscal band is broken & its upper end is an isolated spot.

    PJ4. Eurema ida iona is right. Two cell spots; rounded forewing; note hindwing black streak in space 7 is in line & joins the cellend bar, as in E. andersonii.

    Thank you. I did not look at A. perakana. Your explanation made it so obvious. I had thought that my luck for finding the unusual had eluded me on this trip, but this is great.

    Default Chilling - Part 2 (final)

    The last few of mine from Chilling before we start on Fraser's Hill itself.

    PJ6) Would not have shown this, but the forewing underside markings in space 1b appear odd. UPDATE - Nacaduba calauria malayica
    PJ7) This has got me confused, I thought it was a Jamides celeno, but the striae on the hindwing are wrong, as is the orange patch, which is much smaller than usual. A Nacaduba sp? UPDATE - Nacaduba sanaya elioti
    PJ8) Polyura hebe chersonesa.

    PJ6. This is highly unusual as the wings are darkened & the striae are brownish. The markings do occur in 6-line blues.
    The large marginal spots indicates this should be a male N. calauria.

    PJ7. A male Nacaduba sanaya.

    PJ8. Polyura hebe. In P. moori the width of the green area at the hindwing costa is twice that of the marginal area.
