Hello Albert. We do not have subspecies Lamproptera meges meges in the Philippines.

The subspecies existing in Batangas is the Lamproptera meges decius. It occurs in the Philippines generally, excluding Balabac, Bongao, Dumaran, Palawan, Sanga Sanga, Sibutu, Tawi-tawi. The other subspecies, Lamproptera meges pessimus occurs in Balabac, Dumaran, Palawan, Tawi-tawi.

Regards!! :)
