Yup - it's a Chrysis species even though it looks a lot like Stilbum, they have the same hosts so that's probably why.
Belongs in the lincea-group, cant tell you anything more with confidence though

Hi Eugene!
Alex is right, and I think that this truly
Chrysis lyncea.
(the question on the name lincea-lyncea is still open

)
Cheers
