Notes
The butterfly is locally common in forests at low to high elevations (Alt. 300 - 2000m).
Both sexes visit flowers and males are frequently observed mud-puddling along stream banks and at puddles.
The populations from western to northern Thailand and Myanmar are slightly different.
Further taxonomic study is needed.
