Hi Dr. Seow,
Can help confirm id. I thought it is T.pelea pelea but the arrow heads looks like solid triangles rather than v-shaped. Thanks again.

Female Tanaecia palguna.

In T. palguna the arrowheads are short so that each of the whitish helmet-shaped spot appear very wide.
See the female from Yala below.

In T. munda, the arrowheads are longer ,so that each helmet spot is not so wide.

T. aruna have enhanced arrowheads on both wings.

In T. pelea, continental forms only have simple 'V's.
