Hi Mielsiargao, your butterfly is from the tribe Limenitidini. You can view all of them in https://philippinelepidopt.wixsite.com/butterflies/nymphalinae-limenitidini..... These butterflies are sometimes very easy to identify, but there are some variables in the markings which can make it difficult to be completely certain. I will send you a Species ID Suggestion, showing what I think it is, but you might receive other suggestions. So, please look carefully in the collection of Philippine Lepidoptera and see what you think. Good luck! Nice spotting, by the way.
