Malayan Tail Judy (Abisara savitri savitri) is a forest dwelling butterfly. It is generally uncommon in this region and is reported to be more abundant in hilly areas such as in Fraser's Hill.
If it can avoid predation, I think it can live for quite a long time as I have been seeing this one for the past two weeks. According to literature, the life span of an adult butterfly is generally between 20 - 30 days and some even more (ref: Encyclopedia of the Butterfly World).
This butterfly can be skittish at times.
Its color is generally rusty brown as you can see here.
This butterfly is not a fast flier. It generally "hops" / "flutters" from one place to another.
