The Sri Lankan Tree Brown feeds on tree sap and rotting fruits. It uses the colour pattern on its underside to camouflage itself against tree trunks with lichens and moss. Unlike other Tree Browns, it comes out even during day time.
This butterfly is only found in cloud forests in the highest mountains.
