"For sure, a Saturniidae species. Difficult to tell more since we don't see the hindwings in totality. Perhaps :
Imbrasia epimethea, (Drury, 1772) ; check on the page :

"Probably Mylothris sulphurea Aurivillius, 1895. Difficult to be more certain : only the underside !"

"Damsel"

"I would say that's Papilio echerioides TRIMEN, 1868, female (sexes are very dimorphic). The female mimics butterflies from Amauris genus (Danainae) which are unpalatable for predators. Because, a such mimicry, it's a little bit difficult to identify since there also some members from the Hypolimnas genus which are in the same mimetic pattern."

"Would be useful to have the uperside (colour), anyway looks very much like Cymothoe oemilius DOUMET, 1859."

"Almost certain : Euriphene goniogramma KARSCH, 1894"
