There is a squarish reddish-fuscous blotch on the inner margin before the middle, reaching above the fold, as well as a conspicuous reddish fuscous line from the costa at three-fourths, sharply angulated in the disc, and continued parallel to the hindmargin to before the anal angle. The hindwings are pale ochreous-whitish. [2]
