There is a second rounded spot on the costa before the middle, nearly touching a large squarish blotch on the mid-dorsum, as well as a spot on the costa at two-thirds and a triangular spot on the costa immediately before the apex. A dark fuscous terminal line does not extend to the tornus. The hindwings are dark fuscous. [3]
