The forewings are pale greyish-ochreous, more or less tinged or suffused with brown, and sprinkled with fuscous and dark fuscous scales and with a dark fuscous elongate dot towards the costa near the base and elongate dark fuscous marks on the costa about the middle and two-thirds. The stigmata are represented by small tufts of dark fuscous or blackish scales suffused with reddish-brown, an additional tuft adjoining the first discal obliquely above and before it, the plical beneath the first discal, an additional tuft beneath the second discal.
