The Palm King, Amathusia phidippus phiddipus (Linnaeus)

Common in disturbed environment where palm trees are common, feeding on coconut palms. Rather crepuscular habits and they sometimes enter houses at dusk, attracted by houselight.

Chersonesia nicevillei (Martin)

Ressembles very much like C. intermedia in colour and size but can be differentiated by the distinctively broken submarginal band into 2 parts as well as a curved postdiscal band in above vein 4 on the forewing. Very rare.
