This is a beautiful species , too bad they not fly in Thailand. Where is it coming from? Would you a have a chance to exchange?

Shame, a beautiful species and otherwise perfect specimen. If they are water stains then I fear you might be out of luck.

Cirrochroa imperatrix is endemic from Biak island (West Papua), Paul. One of the most splendid leps I have seen flying in my life.
