Dear Dr Seow,

Could you help me please, which Erites is this?

Also, I have checked the ID of this butterfly as Ragadia makuta (Stripped Ringlet)from the internet. Would appreciate your confirmation please.

2. Ragadia makuta. This not an uncommon species in open forest & old rubber holdings.
It feeds on Selaginella the fine spiny growth used in wreaths & bridal decorations.
As this plant is related to ferns & toxic, the butterfly is probably unpalatable also.
It has a skippy flight over low growths in the forest.

TL Seow: Cheers.
