This taxon was known from only one record from Rayong, S.E.Thailand (20.Aug.1988, Bro. Prasit Chaiphuck) and was recently rediscovered in 2023 by Supat Sophonviwatkul in Nakhon Nayok and Chanthaburi. The butterfly is localised and uncommon in montane forests at low elevations (Alt. 30 - 400m). It seems to occur mainly in coastal areas. Further distributional research is needed.
