The forewings are light brownish, slightly sprinkled with darker, towards the costa anteriorly becoming pale brownish-ochreous and with a triangular dark fuscous spot on the base of the costa, as well as a suffused elongate dark fuscous spot along the basal third of the dorsum, the dorsal scale-projection mixed with white. There is an indistinct irregular waved dark fuscous line from a small spot on one-fifth of the costa to two-thirds of the dorsum and a dark fuscous streak along the costa from two-fifths to three-fourths, each extremity marked with blackish and suffused with dark brown, from the anterior extremity an oblique dentate dark brown line runs half across the wing.
