The stigmata are dark fuscous, the plical rather obliquely beyond the first discal, the second discal connected with dorsum by a direct dark-fuscous rather irregular streak. There are three blackish linear marks on the posterior part of the costa, and a black line around the apex and termen. The hindwings are light grey.[2]
