Hello Dr. Kalesh, Thank you for the identification but I could not find much details on the net regarding this species (not mentioned on the book by Mr. Issac Kehimkar too). I would like to read further about this species, would you suggest any site where I can find about it.
As regards Eastern India, not enough work has been done to document the species availability in Orissa. For the last two years I have been moving to different habitats documenting the butterfly diversity and have created a checklist. Maybe it will be of some use to students. Regards.
