Butterfly IDs?

The Amarynthis ID is correct - it's a male A. meneria, probably ssp. micalia

The Crocozona is correct, but the species ID is ambiguous (the 
underside pattern is unusual)

Cartea vitula is correct for the third one, and the fourth is 
Mesosemia coelestis

The Euptychia is most likely arnaea (but Euptychia are difficult, to 
say the least)

The others seem okay.

Peace,
