There is a row of black dots from below the middle of the costa, continued in a curve around to the anal angle, the anterior three edged anteriorly somewhat with whitish. A row of very small whitish dots on the costa from the middle to the middle of hindmargin, obscured on the hindmargin. The hindwings are grey, suffused with pale fuscous posteriorly.[2]
