Thorax white; tegular pale ochrous and fuscous posteriorly; legs white with fuscous bands; fore coxa milky fuscous with white band on apical part; fore femur fuscous laterally; fore tibia blackish fuscous with two white spots on the basal and median part; fore tarsus with tree fuscous band and the last one most broad; middle femur fuscous laterally; middle tibia with two oblique narrow fuscous bands on 1/3 and 2/3 to base with fuscous apical; middle tarsus with four oblique fuscous bands.

Forewing ground colour fuscous and bronzy ochrous near apex; white streak on dorsal margin from basal to median with two black spots and most of the outer area tinged with pale ochrous; white costa-stria begin at 1/3 to base, stretched along costal margin over a half of forewing, the width of stria on costal margin almost same as the white streak on dorsal margin, rapidly curved downwards obliquely and reaching to wing fold; second white costa-stria at 2/3 to the base with black stria on inner side; more narrow and slender white stria near the apical part and downwards obliquely near the blackish spot of apex; a slightly elongated horizontally black spot on the apex with two white spots and the lower one near tornus longer than upper one.
