This species is only known from two localities in the Limpopo province, the western slope of the Ysterberg and from Moria to Serala Forest in the Wolkberg area.

Adults are on wing from September to early November.

[3] The undersides show flat, grey coloration and smal basal black spots beneath the hindwing.

[2] These butterflies have a steadier flight compared to L. tantalus.

The larvae feed on host plant Becium grandiflorum, however, there's a scarcity of these plants due to overgrazing and infrequent fires, indicating endangerment of L.
