Or any other unbanded Zela or orange-fringed Matapa sp. for that matter?

Thought it was Matapa aria at first but then i noticed the orange cilia. I'm super pissed that i couldn't approach it any nearer. After this shot was taken, it flew off very erratically so i couldn't track it down again.

Thanks Jonathan. I tried returning to the same site hoping to find it again but was unsuccessful. Seems like that trick doesn't work for skippers
