The dorsal area beneath the fold is deep ferruginous, paler towards the base, and the dorsum suffused with dark fuscous on the posterior half. There is a dark brown trapezoidal blotch resting on the dorsum and reaching halfway across the wing, its upper edge excavated, the corners of this excavationmarked with two black dots.
