The forewings are light brownish-ochreous, with some scattered dark fuscous specks on the dorsal third, the costal edge and all veins except on the dorsal third marked with fuscous lines, some fuscous suffusion towards the costa on the anterior half. The plical and second discal stigmata are small and dark fuscous, an additional dot on the lower end of the transverse vein and a faint transverse series of fuscous specks towards the termen. There is also a marginal series of dark fuscous dots around the apical part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are whitish-grey-ochreous, faintly greyer below the middle posteriorly.
