There is a triangular blackish blotch on the middle of the costa reaching half way across the wing and a faint pale somewhat irregular line from four-fifths of the costa to the tornus, the costal and terminal area beyond this suffused with blackish, in the whitish-sprinkled example a terminal line of whitish irroration. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
