There is a small cupreous brown spot at the base of the median nervure and a larger subbasal spot in and below the cell. There is a curved dark brown antemedial line from the subcostal nervure to the above the inner margin, forming small black spots in the area below the cell. There is some yellow suffusion irrorated with brown below the end of the cell and at the middle of the inner margin. The postmedial line is formed by a series of small black-brown lunules.
