Taken at KL Butterfly Park today. After checking the forum discussion on this genus on Aug 2011, I found that this species has more rectangular subapical spots on the forewing and the submarginal band on the hindwing is not divided into a distinct row of spots. I therefore conclude this must be a male Neptis ilira cindia (from CP4)
