Notes

The butterfly is common in secondary and montane forests at low to moderate elevations (Alt. 10 - 1300m). Both sexes visit flowers, and males occasionally come to the banks of streams and puddles to suck water. The females are dimorphic and both forms mimic Danainae species such as Parantica aglea, agleoides and aspasia. It is sympatric with Pareronia avatar, Pareronia paravatar or Pareronia valeria in some places.
