There is an indistinct fine pale ochreous median longitudinal line from near the base to beneath the apex. The plical and second discal stigmata are blackish, and there is also a less distinct small blackish dot above the second discal, and two obliquely beneath and beyond it. The hindwings are pale ochreous-rosy.[2]
