The HW has a small diffuse fulvous area near to the tornus. The FW has five brown spots on the costa towards the apex. Similar markings continue as brown dashed termenal lines around both wings. The FW is traversed by antemedian and post median fulvous lines the latter being sharply angled inwards around R5. Note the the large furry maxillary palpi and the prominent recurved labial palpi.
