Hello Kdon. Pls include this spotting in this mission - http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/15553007 (Butterflies in the Philippines). Thanks!

Common eggfly. Hypolimnas bolina male. This is easily confused with the Danaid eggfly Hypolimnas missipus. I am not certain as to the differences between these two and suggest the white band on the verso hindwing is narrower. I welcome any further discussion.
