The butterfly is not rare in montane forest at low to moderate elevations and is occasionally found at secondary forest or garden trees in a town. Male is frequently found at the hilltops and makes a territory on the tree canopy.
Examples from P.Thailand seem to be a transition between nominotypical subspecies and ssp.maxentius. The post-discal line is more prominent on the underside of the both wings, however the orange markings on the unh is not large as typical maxentius. Saito & Inayoshi,2018 reported it as ssp.maxentius, however, it should be considered ssp.cippus.
