The forewings are elongate, the costa gently arched, ochreous-whitish with a brown-reddish dorsum near the base, a brown-reddish streak from one-fourth of the disc to two-thirds of the dorsum, posteriorly triangularly dilated below the middle and sending a branch to the lower angle of the cell. There is a triangular patch of scattered light brown-reddish suffusion resting on the termen, with a few dark fuscous scales, its apex indicating the second discal stigma.
