A small obscure light brownish 8-shaped spot is found at the end of the cell, edged in the middle anteriorly and sometimes also posteriorly by a minute white dot. There are some small black marginal dots around the apex and termen, around the apex separated by minute whitish dots. The hindwings are grey.^[2]
