Notes

New to Thailand and Myanmar. The butterfly is rare in montane forest at moderate elevations and hitherto it has been known only one specimen in Thailand.
I recorded it from Chiang Mai, N.Thailand and Kachin, N.Myanmar as Coladenia uemurai on my website, however it was misidentification of tanya as Huang,2021 pointed out. This species can be distinguished from Coladenia agni only by the examination of male genitalia.
