There is some purple suffusion in the middle of the disc, followed by a very undefined blotch of light ochreous suffusion, beyond which is an angulated fascia of purple suffusion running very near the posterior part of the costa and termen to before the tornus. The hindwings are whitish-fuscous.^[2]
