The stigmata are small, dark grey, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal. There is an oblique grey mark on the middle of the costa and a rather strongly curved series of blackish dots from the costa at three-fourths to the tornus, slightly sinuate towards the costa and below the middle. There is a marginal series of blackish dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.[3]
