The forewings are pale ochreous, thinly speckled with dark brown and with a rather broad ill-defined streak of dark brown suffusion beneath the middle from the base of the dorsum to the termen beneath the apex. There is a slender suffused dark brown streak along the costa from the middle to near the apex, as well as a dark fuscous terminal interrupted line or series of dots. The hindwings are grey.[3]
