It's not obnubila. obnubila doesn't have such a marbled appearance and has whitened forewing apices and white spots on the hindwing(like a hypermnestra with tails).

It's without a doubt Elymnias harterti, which is very rare.

Quite right.

Rushing thru Yutaka's small images was a poor choice to compare images quickly.

These are stunning. I especially love E. dara... what a beautiful pattern.
