Looks good to me, thanks, I have updated. I'll leave both suggestions up as they tie into the comments and may help others to see how the ID process works.

I agree Malcolm, probably different species, but i couldn't find anything close! hope someone else will Id this for you..

Hi Nuwan, I checked this against your link and also against these http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co... As you can see, mine does not have the rows of small spots between the lines on the wings and also these lines are less distinct and much closer together on mine. This may just be a sub-species difference but could be a different species altogether. I am not convinced yet.
