http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycalesis_mineus The Dark-branded Bushbrown, Mycalesis mineus, is a species of satyrine butterfly found in Asia. This is the wet season form...take a look please.

Thanks LuckyLogan. Yes, once in a while I'm quite lucky to spot some beautiful butterflies and moths. In fact, when I'm looking for them they tend to come to me, to be clicked, perhaps!
