Notes

The butterfly is common in montane forests at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 50 - 1000m) and is frequently found on forest paths and forest edges. Both sexes visit flowers and males occasionally come to the banks of streams and puddles to suck water.
Tsukada (1985) regarded all subspecies from N.India to China as ssp.continentalis. However, some of these continental subspecies seem to be different. I tentatively treat a taxon of S.Myanmar to China as ssp.siamensis. Further taxonomic study is needed.
