On the forewing upperside note the unaligned row of sub apical spots, the uniform dark brown colouration, the short yellow streak on the inner margin (partially visible in image1) and the longish yellow band in the centre of wing (ref Michael Braby, Butterflies of Australia 2000). Images showing underside of forewing match phigalioides.
