Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: None.
Status: Resident

Coordinator notes: I think this is the correct ID. For this species, the underside of the hindwing has the most convincing marks, so it is best to get a pic of the underside as well. And it is generally good practice to get photos of upperside and underside of all species, just in case they are important for ID purposes.
