Wing span:

Identification: The wings are dark brown, white and light brown on the upperside. Both fore- and hindwings are dark brown at the basal and postbasal regions. Part of the discal and inner postdiscal regions of the forewings are also dark brown, around the costal region. The remaining postdiscal region of the forewings is white, and the subapical and apical regions are light brown. After the dark brown postbasal region of the hindwings, there is a thin white band, then a broader very light brown band, followed by another thin white band right at the end of the postdiscal region. The area outside of this is light brown. Both fore- and hindwings have dark brown margins. The underside of the wings is brown with white markings. The forewings have a large central white patch that extends down to the dorsum, three subapical white spots, two discal white spots near the costa, a postdiscal vaguely u-shaped white patch near the costa that is consistent with the central white patch. The hindwings have two white bands, one in the postbasal region and in the postdiscal region. The postdiscal band is made up of seven segments. The hindwings also have greyish submarginal lunules.
