 " not a common species, but found throughout the year at elevations up to 3000 or 

 4000 feet." Mr. de Niceville (J. A. S. Beng. 1883, 93) obtained it in " Sikkim, in 

 October." It is recorded (Butt. Ind. 152) from the " Khasia Hills, in May and 

 November." In Burma, according to Major C. H. E. Adamson (Catal. of Burmese 

 Butterflies, p. 8), "this butterfly is very common at Bhamo throughout the rains."
