Adults are pale ochraceous, the forewings minutely black speckled, with a cupreous costal stripe, which is interrupted by two oblique pale lines, and does not extend to the tip. There is a cupreous mark at the base of the interior border and two irregular oblique cupreous streaks extending outward to the disc from one-third of the length of the interior border. There is also a submarginal chalybeous (steel-blue) band and a reddish tinge along the exterior part of the costa and along the fore part of the exterior border, which has a black line and is not oblique. The hindwings are aeneous (bronze coloured).[2]
