There is a white spot in the end of the cell before the blackish discoidal bar. The postmedial line is dark defined on the outer side by a narrow white band to vein 5, then by small white spots incurved to vein 5, where it is slightly angled outwards, then very slightly waved, oblique to vein 3, then strongly incurved. The hindwings are brown suffused with grey and with a small blackish discoidal spot with a whitish spot before it.
