Thanks, I just delete my last comment after looking for another Membracis. I noticed many non-trustable links there and thought I should re-check yours as well. If you fell comfortable with my suggestion, the better anyway ;-)...
Thank you for the correction bayucca, I was checking other photos and it's definetly M. foliatafasciata. Thanks again.
I think yours is not Membracis dorsata, but Membracis foliatafasciata.

In the second picture looks like you may have a different species..is that right? if so, you should separate it into another spotting :-)
