The butterfly is not uncommon in montane forest at low elevations.
The populations in Peninsular Thailand are not so clearly distinguished from ssp.lycambes as Kimura et al.,2014 pointed out. The ground color of both surface is slightly darker and the red marking in space 3 on the UnH tends to be more reddish and prominent. I treat it as ssp.miya temporarily, further taxonomic study is needed.
