This species is found in much of south and southeast Asia, as well as in southern China and southern Japan.

Differ only from the wet season brood in the slightly more falcate apex to forewing, and in the purer white ground colour on the upperside. Also the terminal margin on the hindwing in the male has the black markings all but obsolete, while in the female the postdiscal and terminal black markings on the same are smaller than in the wet season form. Underside: the mottlings of brown strigae and minute spots are more numerous and dense.

The eggs are laid on the larval food plants Crataeva religiosa, Capparis moonii, Capparis roxburghii, Capparis cantoniensis and Capparis sepiaria (Capparaceae).

"Subcylindrical, tapering towards each end, numerously covered with minute tubercles; green." (Moore)
Subcylindrical; suddenly tapered at both ends; covered with transverse rows of pointed tubercles. Colour dark green, with a lateral bluish line bordered inferiorly with a series of minute red spots; legs green, the prothoracic legs bordered with black that widens on the middle one of the three.

"Much arched along the back; head pointed." (Moore)

Colour green, a patch of pale ochraceous on the wing cases and a narrow lateral band of the same colour from head to tail, with a brown line superposed on it that extends to the abdominal segments; abdominal segments and wing case sparsely spotted with black.
