Adult males are bright chrome-yellow, the antenna, head, thorax and outer portions of the wings slightly darker than the general colour and with a faint indication of a straight discal line on the hindwings, but otherwise absolutely without markings. Females are dark chrome-yellow, absolutely without markings.[2]
