There is a dark reddish brown streak extending from the anterior angle of the cell to about half-way along the posterior margin of the areole and a second dark reddish brown streak extends from the discocellular spot to the base of the wing. There are also six greenish, iridescent patches and a faintly marked oblique postmedial fascia from near the apex to abo
