The butterfly is not rare in montane forests at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 30 - 1200m). Males are territorial on shrubs at hilltops.
In Phetchaburi, upper part of peninsular Thailand, both ssp.amharina and ssp.bahula are found sympatrically. It seems to be a transition zone containing intermediate individuals.
