There is a dot on the costa at two-fifths, from which extends a second outwardly oblique series of dots ending in a larger dot in the disc at two-thirds. A third series of dots is found from the costa at three-fifths, parallel to the hindmargin to before the anal angle. The hindwings are whitish-grey. [2]
