Proximal band broad in posterior half, broadly interrupted just beyond fork of M + Cu, strongly constricted near anterior end in cell CuA, including broad light pigmented area. Median spots dense, some spots fused with each other and forming large marking. Distal band broad but faint. Spot on roof of cell m 3 long. Submarginal spots apparent; spot in cell r 1 small; spot in cell m 3 paler. Marginal clouds broad and dark. Hindwing. Hyaline with faint brown markings in cell CuP; veins brown.
