My suspect is based on the guidance you provided in my earlier post.

UnF with the marginal third paler; UnH nearly uniformly dark brown.

Definitely S. swinhoei.

There is no other species with only the FW outer zone paler.
It also occur in P. Malaysia but has largely been confused with A. nigrita.
