5a & b looks to be Halpe molta, as the spots are better defined.




6 has a better defined band. Probably H. flava

Both H. flava ,band yellow & H. kusala ,band yellowish white are said to be recorded in India.

TL Seow;Cheers.
PS. 5 & 6 are likely the same species, just a matter of depth of colouring.
Halpe flava occur all the way to Assam.
Peninsular Malaysia.
