This butterfly has a wide distribution, the typical form in Java, and several subspecies in India , Andamans, Nicobar, Sunda Islands, Moluccas , New Guinea , Australia , South Sea islands. The subspecies subtuslııtea occurs in west java. It is particularly distinguished by the hindwing of the female being entirely chrome yellow beneath, as is also the forewing at apex beyond the black bar. Of the few specimens collected in Öuam, the best female agreed with this coloration and the figures in Rhopalocera javanica cited above. This species was not previously recorded from Guam , and was quite rare.
