There is a spot of faint brownish suffusion on the middle of the dorsum and there is a small fuscous spot beneath the costal edge in the middle, where a series of cloudy undefined fuscous dots rather strongly excurved in the disc runs to the dorsum about three-fourths. There is a rather large triangular fuscous spot beneath the costal edge towards the apex, where a curved series of small dark fuscous dots runs to the tornus and there is a terminal series of small black dots. The hindwings are pale yellowish, the dorsal half tinged very pale grey.
