Notes

The butterfly is locally not rare in montane forest at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 30 - 900m).
According to Eliot (1980), Pendlebury (1939) described ssp.keda from the male holotype from Kedah Peak and the female allotype from Langkawi Is., which belong to two different taxa. He therefore considered ssp.keda to be synonymous with ssp.yamuna and described ssp.langkawica for the Langkawi population.
