Cirrochroa aoris, the large yeoman, is a species of nymphalid butterfly found in forested areas of tropical South Asia and Southeast Asia.[1][2]

It is very similar to Cirrochroa tyche. There are slight differences in wing shape (more irregular/toothed in aoris), ground colour variations (brown/blue hues in aoris), and distinctive markings, often requiring close inspection of wing spots and edges.
