Doleschallia bisaltide are found in primary and secondary rainforests at altitudes from 0 - 1400m .
   They can also be seen in mangrove forests, parks and cities.
   They fly at moderate speed, and are usually found flying alone along forest trails.
   If disturbed they will fly away immediately.
   Males absorb moisture from the moist sand and rocks on the riverbanks, in order to gain important nutrients.
   They have orange forewings with black margins at the tips of the wings.
   The ventral sides of the wings are purplish brown with vein like markings running down both the fore and hind wings.
   The ventral wings also have two large ocelluses crowned with orange and a black center.
   When taking nectar, the Autumn Leaf is often found near the flower’s corolla, where its fluffy hairs easily pick up pollen, assisting in the pollination of the plant and others.
   Potential predators of Doleschallia bisaltide   include birds, spiders, predatory insects and small mammals.
   *As members of the Brush Footed (Nymphalidae) family, they use their shorter pair of front legs for food tasting, and their two pairs of longer rear legs for propulsion.
