This is the first reliable record from Thailand.

Pinratana (1981) recorded Arhopala myrzala lammas from Songkhla, however the figured specimen is Arhopala bazaloides, and the figured specimen shown in Ek-Amnuay ([2007],2012) is from W.Malaysia.
The butterfly is uncommon in montane forests at low elevations.
