There are three large black dots along the subbasal line and three similar dots near the middle, three-fourths on the costa and at the middle of the termen. The first discal stigma is found at the middle of the cell, the plical below the fist and the second at the end of the cell. There are three pairs of marginal dots before the apex and several dots along the termen, as well as brownish suffusion before the tornus. The hindwings are pale grey.
