The markings are pale ochreous-yellowish and there is a small irregular basal spot, and three others in a subbasal transverse series. A narrow irregular fascia is found from two-fifths of the costa to near the dorsum beyond the middle, interrupted in the middle. A triangular spot is found on the costa at four-fifths and there is a small round spot near the termen beneath the apex, and a transverse spot near the termen below the middle. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
