User's notes
I believe this is Deudorix diovis ie Bright Cornelian butterfly - with its amazing rear circular flaps (defence mechanism) and furry tails. Not in dropdown list. Also can't select Family Lycaenidae as doesn't accept without specific species. Not sure if male or female as didn't see upperside of wings.
