This medium-sized nymphalid has a rather recognisable form as its forewing tips are rather long and pointed outward, resembling a much more marked Commander or a slim female Horsfield's Baron. It is an insect of the deep shades and can be frequently seen sunning itself in mid mornings and afternoons among the sun-speckled mid canopy of the forest.
