Only one record of the species was known from Thailand (1♀, Jul.1974, Narathiwat. A.Samruadkit). It was rediscovered in 2022 by Antonio Giudici from Yala province.
The butterfly seems to be quite localized, occurring in montane forests at low elevations. It is very curious that this species is not found in the Malay Peninsula. Further distributional research is needed.
