The forewings are greyish-ochreous, with a few scattered black scales and with the costa suffused with dark grey except towards the apex, where it is tinged with crimson. The stigmata are indicated by small indistinct spots of grey suffusion, the discal approximated, the plical rather before the first discal. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[3]
