Kaniska canace

This butterfly landed on my backpack in Nam Nao National Park. I have spotted the Blue Admiral but I think the underside and upperside are so different, it can warrant separate spottings, as this is a different individual as well.
These Brush footed (Nymphalidae) are comparatively powerful butterflies. Their steps are spike like thorny and take grip on anything.
Thanks Ashish, I knew it was one I had spotted before with the upperside of the wings, but not sure with the underside view.
