[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This butterfly looks like a dead-leaf. Initially it was very hard for to identify the actual butterfly from the stack of dead leaves. A very nice gift of nature for survival.

Please help me to identify the species.

Much as I'd like to, mate, I am simply useless in things zoological...
But this is an amazing shot, as a matter of fact, this is my first visit to your beautiful gallery, I think, and you're rockin'!
Cheers!

P.S. Thanks for your kind words

Evening Brown has the tendency to merge with deal leaves for camouflage, Atanu. I guess it is an Evening Brown, but you better check up to be fully certain.
In your picture, the butterfly becomes one with the dead leaves. However, the details and colours on its nether wing are well captured.
TFS and all the best.
