Photographed at Kaeng Krachan NP Thailand. I cannot make up my mind if this is the mimic Papilio clytia (similar to form dissimillima) or one of Tiger species Tirumala sp? No images on the web give a good match. I lean toward Papilio clytia but not sure.
Many thanks

Others. Note difference in the way the HW cell area is marked.

All Papilionines (subfamily Papilioninae )are readily ID'ed by their big eyes & upturned antennal clubs.

Many thanks. I had the feeling I was looking in the wrong place, but never thought of Pareronia.
