This species inhabits the rainforest at the foot of the eastern Andes at altitudes between 400 and 800 m above sea level. When "the blue hookwing" sits on the ground with folded wings, it perfectly resembles a dry leaf.
The installation of the zoological specimen in the plexiglass box was made in a German taxidermy studio.
