The male lectotype of Iulus corallinus and one female and two juvenile paralectotypes, all from the Mauritius Island, Indian Ocean, are kept in the Paris Museum (Shelley and Lehtinen 1999). Remarks.

It seems to be native to Southeast Asia, most likely interior Myanmar and Thailand (Shelley and Lehtinen 1999).
