Neither me, Dan. It is probably not Lexias pardalis (whatever subspecies). I am not familiar enough with your area, so it could be Lexias dirtea with a tiny little yellow antenna tip or Lexias canescens. There might be other ones in Malaysia. http://www.butterflycircle.com/checklist/showbutterfly/79 http://www.butterflycircle.com/checklist/showbutterfly/80 Definitely a female! ;-)
