Adults are cupreous-brown, the forewings tinged with chalybeous-blue for three-fourths of the length from the base and there are three ochraceous black-bordered patches, the first patch basal and the second antemedial. The third is postmedial and there are a few ochraceous speckles between the third patch and a chalybeous-blue submarginal line.
