The butterfly is uncommon in montane forest at low to moderate elevations (Alt.300m - 1000m).
I treated the population from Phetchaburi, north part of Peninsular Thailand as intermediate between ssp.thuisto and ssp.sawaja before.
However ssp.sawaja was found in W.Thailand, and I consider the population in Phetchaburi should be included in this taxon.
Kimura et al.,2014 recorded ssp.thuisto from Tenasserim, and it is also possible to be this subspecies, but I treat it as the nominotypical subspecies until it is confirmed by specimens.
