A second costal spot, before the middle, is followed by a third beyond the middle, opposite to which and a little beyond it is a black dorsal spot of raised scales at the end of the fold. Beyond this is a speck of black scales on the termen a little above the tornus, while another conspicuous black spot, with raised white scales intermixed, lies across the middle of the fold, a smaller similar spot on the cell about the middle of the wing. The hindwings are pale steely grey. [2]
