The green awlet is found in Nepal, the Indian Himalayas, Myanmar, Thailand and Laos.[2]

In India, the butterfly ranges from Kumaon, across Nepal along the Himalayas to Sikkim and Assam and eastwards towards Myanmar.[2][4]

The type locality is Darjeeling in northern West Bengal.[2]

Status

3. ^Vane-Wright and de Jong (2003) (see TOL web pages on genus Bibasis genus Burara in the Tree of Life Web Project) state that Bibasis contains just three diurnal species, the crepuscular remainder having been removed to Burara. The species now shifted to Burara are morphologically and behaviorally distinct from Bibasis, within which many authors have formerly included them.
