Hi Nuwan,

I checked your reference & I think you're right - it looks like Vindula sp, however the geographic range of V. arsinoe does not seem to extend to Laos / SE Asia.

Could it be V. erotella (sometimes spelled erota)? Here are a couple of refs: http://www.malaeng.com/blog/?s=vindula; http://www.butterflycircle.com/checklist...

Thanks, Adam
