The wingspan is about 34–48 mm. Adults do not fly very much and are active for only a few hours just after day-break and/or at dusk. It is a noisy flyer which can manoeuvre with precision in and out of branches and undergrowth, but which will dart off at high speed if disturbed. It rests among dead leaves or on the bark of trees. Adults of ssp. sangaica are attracted to the flowers of Duranta erecta in Hong Kong
