The stigmata are dark fuscous, rather obscure, with the plical obliquely beyond the first discal. There is a wedge-shaped dark fuscous blotch, suffused beneath with yellow ochreous, along the costa from the middle to three-fourths, acute anteriorly. There is also some ochreous suffusion towards the apex, edged on the costa with blackish. The hindwings are grey.
