Hi,

This butterfly flew into my living room, on the 4th floor, and settled on the wall, just above my sofa! Poor angle and lighting for photo!!Looks like Cephrenes trichopepla, Yellow Palm Dart??

1. female Polytremis lubricans.
The colouration & prominent HW venation is typical . Note at least 2 hyaline spots on the HW can be see.

2. Looks like you have rediscovered Idmon distanti male.

In Astictopterus jama the palpi (labial palps) are large & protruding.
http://m6.i.pbase.com/o4/75/35275/1/64076866.YQh5roCk.AstictopterusjamaForestHopper02. jpg

Both I salsala & stellifer females have wite spots on the FW upperside.
The male I. salsala have a band of yellowish spots on the FW ; the male of I. stellifer is unmarked on the FW upperside.

Even with this stage of wear it is not possible for the white spots on the underside to disappear completely.
Loke has an aberrant I salsala without spots but the colour differs.

1. Halpe ormenes female is right.

2. Prosotas nora male. P. dana has a smal triangular black spot.
Very worn . This may look like P. dubiousa , but in this species the black margin is continuous across vein 2 on the HW.
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8q3YhzHUOpM/U4H26aCoSSI/AAAAAAAAODk/JwTMdMCFN5Q/s1600/HFH_2373-Prosotas.jpg
In P. nora the black margin is broken & angled at vein 2 where the tail normally is.
