Okay, I think there were more than one of these in the park, and they are not the same butterfly as this one has part of its wing missing, the other spotting doesn't. So I'll leave them as 2 separate spottings. Thanks bayucca...
It is the same one, but as you may noticed with a wrong ID. So this one is also Kallima paralekta. If it is the same butterfly and you took it at the same location, let's say within an our, I think that would count as 1 spotting. I do not know how the rule is for the time interval. But locations must be the same to be sure it is really the same butterfly.
bayucca, in a case like this should I put them together in 1 spotting, or leave them as 2?
Yes, I think, it is also called Dead Leaf. Now you know why...
bayucca might this be the under side wing of the Orange Oakleaf?
