The forewings are suffusedly irrorated white and somewhat sprinkled dark fuscous, with two short black marks along the costa before and beyond one-fourth and with a semi-oval black spot on the middle of the costa, and four small dark grey transverse marks posteriorly. There is a black dash in the disc before the middle, enclosed in a spot of dark grey suffusion.
