Appologise for the quality again. This little one was right in the middle of the congregation of butterflies.

thanks martin. Yes, it's quite a puzzling one. There seem to be several with quite similar markings, but none quite the same...

Its pseudoacraea but not sure which one. Its part of a group of really good mimics. This (with only four legs) is nymphalidae and not papilionidae. The wings are rounder than I would expect for Pseudoacraea so this spotting needs a second opinion.
