Thanks Keith for the confirmation. After a "wrong" one it is always a good feeling to have a correct one again ;-)...

Good call, Dominik! Junonia pupae can be tricky.

Nymphalidae, Nymphalinae, Junonini, Junonia sp. and Junonia almana javana looks to be quite a nice match. I try to get a confirmation...
