The discal stigmata are blackish, the first moderate and dot like, the second forming a transverse-linear mark, in males these resting on more or less dark fuscous suffusion extending over the dorsal third of the wing, darkest and best defined anteriorly. There is some dark fuscous suffusion along the upper part of the termen. The hindwings light grey.[2]
