The forewings have an antemedial series of three dark specks, a discocellular speck with a black spot below it at the lower angle of the cell and a postmedial slightly curved series of specks on the veins. The hindwings have a discocellular speck and a postmedial series of specks. Both wings have a marginal brown line and a line at the base of the cilia.[2]
