The forewings with a narrow medial hyaline spot across the cell, and a narrower outbent streak below the cell, as well as a narrower fuscous brown streak on the discocellular. There are three postmedial small hyaline spots forming a slightly incurved line cut by veins 6 and 5, and a smaller spot below vein 4.
