Hi Dr. Seow,
Here are observations in Peninsular Malaysia by teenager RY of Kuala Lumpur who requested me to submit for your help to confirm id.

8.https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/199180326
Likely to be Halpe zinda

Two species have the HW band strongly angled out at the tornus.
There are.
H. zema. HW band outer margin strongly serrated, yellowish.
At rest the lower part is angled out more because of the folding effect.
https://yutaka.it-n.jp/hes/91250010.html

The next two have the band's lower end less extended & angled but at rest because of the fold also appeared rather angled.
The bands tend to be whitish, the outer margin more regular.

H. ormenes.
Band rather broad.

Female Atrophaneura nox erebus.

I am surprised that this need confirmation.

The female is magical.
She is usually seen flying low in the forest gloom, weaving around the low bushes.
At times she is practically invisible in the dim light, the whitened wingtips appearing like a pair of white moths moving in a synchronized dance.

I'll leave this as it is.
It is either P. bada or ganga.
The HW have large spots & a small spot 6.
It resembles P. ganga but P. ganga is stated to lack this spot (although occassionally it is present).
All species may have different sized spots.

Mycalesis is variable & reginal difference can be cinfusing.
