Notes
The butterfly is locally common in montane forest at low to high elevations (Alt. 10 - 1800m).
Yago et al. (2012) identified ipona as a form of the nominotypical subspecies based on both morphology and molecular analysis.
However, I treat ipona as a distinct subspecies, mainly on the basis of morphology.
