12 is Loepa diffundata I think you are on south facing slopes so you would be more inclined to have the Indian species. If you were on north facing slopes, I think you would more likely have south western Chinese species. For instance, The Antheraeopsis that I indicated is likely chengtuana would be assamensis if you are on south facing slopes.
13 is Loepa katinka 15 is Actias parasinensis e2 top: Antheraea frithi male e2 bottom: Antheraea roylii male Bill Oehlke

10 A is Actias parasinsis female 10 B is female Actias selene or possibly Actias selene malaisei 10 C is female Actias selene 10 D is male Actias selene
You indicate B and C are different. In what way? Are they from different locations? They appear very similar to me. If from different locations you may have Actias selene selene and Actias selene malaisei.

is South slope where i collected in, north slope is still a bit high elevation i don't collect there cuz the insects are relativelly much poorer. but not always,it also depends on where cuz some branch vallys could go through directlly reach to to north side. but still less good than S.Slope. if you googleearth to S.E.Tibet Linzhi (area) you'll find,the elevation is important anyway. the moist air from the Indian Ocean that mostlly was stoped by the mountain range to go into the north(highland area),but Linzhi area is average as a whole is lower elevation than Highland. the geographic infomation should be knewn before to go.the study is necessary no matter to go anywhere that never been before.
