The butterfly is locally common in montane forests at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 10 - 1100m). Males are territorial on shrubs or trees.
The populations from peninsular Thailand were previously thought to be ssp.intaca, but individuals as far as Satun are considered to be ssp.ignara. If ssp.intaca is found in Thailand, it is likely to be from Yala, particularly Betong district. Further distributional and taxonomic studies are needed.
