The forewings have a sinuous antemedial line from the median to the inner margin, a point in the cell and a short streak on the discocellular. The postmedial line is inbent from the costa, bluntly outcurved from below vein 5 to vein 2, retracted toward the end of the cell, angled and sinuous to the inner margin.
