    I'm not sure about this one either. Although very similar, it doesn't look exactly the same. Any reference? I should really go to bed now...

      I got the ID from the same local Butterfly group.
      As for the previous Butterfly, they have corrected the ID to be a GREY GLASSY TIGER - Ideopsis juventa manillana. Thanks for taking a close look and my apology for the wrong ID.       Posted 8 years ago

        Hmmm, I've now identified is using the main species Ideopsis juventa, yet this photo is also identified as being that species:

        They seem to me as entirely different species?         Posted 8 years ago

          Sorry for the confusion, Ferdy.
          This should be identified to Jamides philatus osias and not Ideopsis juventa manillana.
          I was referring to Ideopsis juventa manillana on another Spotting which I have already changed.           Posted 8 years ago

            Ok, no problem. You should be able to remove your own identifications though, using the red button below the species (red cross). Posted 8 years ago

              OK, I removed the wrong ID, and make a new manual ID request. Posted 8 years ago

                Thank you, species created. I already identified it, but no worries, the species intro will still go to you. Posted 8 years ago

        I can agree with Ideopsis juventa for the other one and you already got the comment that you can just change the ID, no need to delete the photo.
        I'm still not convinced about this one but I haven't found a better match either.         Posted 8 years ago
