Thanks Daniele once more. I'd never imagined some butterflies like this ever existed! It's quite interesting, especially for a lay man like me; but whenever I get some spare time I too try to burn the mid-night oil!

You're welcome Dr. Sherpa. They are in the same tribe as the "snow flats" (tribeTagiadini), but in a different genus. More information here:

Thanks a lot Daniele for the ID, ref and for liking it. One question: Are they also called '....snow flat'?
