There are several similar skippers around. But based on the yellow band and its shape and extension I think yours is Koruthaialos rubecula. http://www.thaibugs.com/wp-content/gallery/hesperiidae/Koruthaialos%20rubecula.jpghttp://www.ifoundbutterflies.org/299-koruthaialos/koruthaialos-rubecula Not Gem Demon: https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/140486053 http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/243726071
