Here's a curious looking lep from Vietnam
for which I have no name or otherwise I.D.
Does anyone have any ideas ?

It is Calinaga species and if it’s from Vietnam it could be Calinaga buddha. All species of this Genus look similar.

Wow, that was FAST paul !
Once again, I am indebted to you for your broad knowledge
of butterflies (especially those from S.E.Asia).
These are very unusual-looking Nymphalid butterflies which
somewhat look a bit (moth-like).
As always, I very much appreciate your help and I am grateful
for your input.
