Hi all, Subramanyam, Great pics!!!!
My understanding is that you could hv two different taxa here. In the Common silverline the reddish bands are bordered black or brown. The other could be the Long-banded silverline. Hv you touched up the pics using software?? If so that does not help in id-ing :-) In the Long-banded silverline - HW has 2 tails on a large orange lobe with 2 black spots........ I am not an expert at this, just giving it a try :-) You will hv to await the more experienced persons for confirmation. HTH, Blaise "Let the beauty we love be what we do.
