There are traces of an antemedial line with a projecting line below the cell. The discocellular line is heavy, with a thick line below it from the base of vein 2 to the submedian, and a short line below submedian. The postmedial line is somewhat lunular, as well as subterminal crosslines on the interspaces. There is a fine terminal line, between veins 5 and 2 the interspaces are faintly tinged with yellow.
