There is some undefined fuscous suffusion on the costa at one-third, and semi-oval dark fuscous spots beyond the middle and at four-fifths. There is a blotch of brownish suffusion on the middle of the dorsum. The second discal stigma is dark fuscous and there are several indistinct darker dots in a subterminal series on the lower part of the wing. There is a marginal series of black dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are pale ochreous-yellowish, the posterior half suffused grey, the terminal edge yellowish.^[2]
