Habitat
The Kaiser-i-hind is a high altitude forest species which occurs at medium and higher elevations in the Himalayas from 6,000 to 10,000 feet (1,800 to 3,000 m) in well-wooded terrain. In the northeast of India, much of its forest habitat is degraded by jhoom cultivation; the butterfly is rarely found in the degraded patches.
