The Malayan Plum Judy, Abisara neophron chelina (Fruhstorfer)

This is not an uncommon butterfly in Fraser's Hills but is not found in the plains. It can be seen in the earlier part of the morning around the bushes that flank the wooded roads and sometimes even on the rest areas where flower beds are planted. It is an unmistakable butterfly with its half-open pose, an elogated tail that ends with a white dot and a prominent white band on its forewings. As with many Rionids, they are restless in perch and will not stay long on a particular spot.
