    Borbo cinnara female.

    The extra spots on the HW suggest it might be Parnara, but,
    1 The HW lower 3 spots are well in line.
    2. FW subapical 3 spots out of line.

    Parnara ;short stumpy antenna; HW lower spots out of line (bada & ganga) ;FW often 2 subapical spots; if 3 ,then in line.

    Borbo cinnara.

    TL Seow : Cheers.
    PS. It might judt be possible for a Pelopidas to have the HW cellspot missing.
    This would make it extremely difficult to ID, but generally the lower part of the abdomen in Pelopidas is dark.
