Herona marathus angustata

[Painted Jezebel]

Here is a female Herona marathus angustata (Yellow Pasha), which I doubt many of you have seen before, as it is only found in the North of Malaysia, upwards.

For those of you who are still in with a chance of winning my competition, please note that I am now going to extend the suspense by no longer posting the running total! He! He! He! (Absolute rotter, aren;t I )

I will continue to post species which may be unusual for you in Singapore, but I will not be saying whether they are +1s or not.

Seen this in Langkawi many years ago, and the orange (?) coloured male. Rare in the rest of West Malaysia.

Look at those extra long antenna!

[Painted Jezebel]

Yes, SK, the male markings are orange in colour. I suspected that you may have seen this, and possibly LC as well, but I doubt if anyone else has.

I don't think it is common anywhere in its range, certainly not here.
