The forewings of the males are dark fuscous, darkest in the cell. The dorsal area is light fuscous from the base almost to the tornus. The hindwings are dark fuscous. Females have ochreous-whitish forewings, sprinkled light brownish posteriorly and on the dorsal area, except near the base. There is a suffused dark fuscous lunulate spot on the end of the cell.
