This moth is widely distributed from Madagascar, Mauritius, throughout India, Ceylon, Burma, China, Philippines, Christmas Island (Indian Ocean), New Guinea, New Hebrides, and has beeri reported from Samoa and Fiji. It was not previously recorded from Guam. We found it rather rare. We reared it from caterpillars feeding on leaves and in pods of Crotalaria quinquefolia occasionally growing on dikes in fallow rice fields.
