Notes
The butterfly is locally common in montane forests at high elevations (Alt. 1500 - 1800m).
Males frequently come to the banks of streams and puddles to suck water.
This species is found sympatric with Pseudocoladenia fabia in its habitat.
The population from Fang, N.Thailand is similar to Pseudocoladenia fatih in the male genitalia.
However, the wing markings are different.
Further taxonomic and distributional studies are needed.
