Hi, all, this archduke i came across today lacked the olivaceous green markings in the two commoner archdukes. However, it's only slightly smaller than a "regular" archduke. Could this be a Lexias canescens?:thinking: Sry for poor picture quality, forgot to trigger my flash.

It is canescens female.

Someone already pointed out about the 3rd spot in space 1b on the forewing - one for canescens, & two for the rest.
