There is an indistinct pale cloudy straight line, edged posteriorly with darker, from one-third of the costa to the middle of the dorsum. A strong black transverse mark is found on the end of the cell and there is a pale cloudy straight line, edged anteriorly with darker, from five-sixths of the costa to the tornus and there is a terminal series of black dots. The hindwings are grey, the apical half ochreous orange.[2]
