Notes

The butterfly is not rare in montane forests at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 300 - 900m) and is often found at forest edges. Males occasionally come to the banks of streams and puddles to suck water.
Symbrenthia hippoclus is distinguishable from lilaea by only examination of the male genitalia.
