Notes
The butterfly is locally common in Peninsular Thailand and S.Vietnam but uncommon in other part of the continental area.
It is found in montane forests at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 30 - 1000m).
Males often come to the banks of streams and puddles to suck water.
Further taxonomic and distributional studies are needed.
