Note: Till date a virtual gap was present in the Indo-Chinese distribution of this species between Laos and Myanmar & Nepal and NW India (Uttarakhand) ( Schintlmeister, 2008). The present record of the species from Arunachal Pradesh (NE India) suggests its continuous distribution in the Indo-Chinese region. Acer sp. ( Aceraceae ) is reported to be a host plant of this species.
