The butterfly is locally not rare in montane forests at low elevations.
This taxon resembles ssp.maia.
However, both sexes have a quite distinct postdiscal black line on the underside of both wings, and the female has marginal black spots in space 2 to 4 on the UnH.
I restricted this taxon to the populations from Langkawi and Koh Tarutao.
Further taxonomic study is needed.
