Steve, even with E. hyacinthina having been previously recorded in the general area, due to the upperside similarities between same and E. acasta am not able to go past Erina sp. without seeing an underside image. @canberrabutterflies @MatthewFrawley @Birdy any advice welcome.

Hi Steve, Owen. Yes, we will need an underside photo to confirm to species. Cheers
