I would say E. fascinata female and E. subferruginea male.

Thanks Milan,
I will have more to identify after I spread more. Do you have a good identification website or publication that helps with this group?

Dear Bugboy, I have almost all Hecq works, including about 50-60 papers published in journal Lambilionea, his Euphaedra book (http://www.pemberleybooks.com/product/euphaedra/2600/) published in Lambilionea and finally small booklet Butterflies of the World: Nymphalidae Iii, Euphaedra Paperback (http://www.amazon.in/Butterflies-World-Nymphalidae-Iii-Euphaedra/dp/3931374688). I do not want to comments Hecq work here. Only shortly. He described many good species. That is truth. On the other hand, his works are far away from the “user friendly identification guides”, with very week description of new species and with many new species, which looks more like subspecies or rare aberrations, not as a truth species... Big mess! I would propose to use his booklet Butterflies of the World: Nymphalidae III, Euphaedra. It is good for beginners... Than I have 3 books including description of Eupahedra. The Butterflies of West Africa, Zaire and Gabon. I use also quite often this website. Very good pictures… www.africamuseum.be/collections/browsecollections/naturalsciences/biology/lepidoptera/browse?family=Nymphalidae&genus=EuphaedraI also try to make my own identification keys. Despite of this 40 % of my Euphaedra specimens remains unidentified :-(
