Identification: This species is sexually dimorphic. Males are bright orange with dark brown costal, apical and termenal margins on the forewings, and termenal and dorsal margins on the hindwings. The margins are continuous with an oblique central dark brown band on the forewings. The subapical region of the forewings is also dark brown with two orange bands. Females have dark brown forewings with an orange patch at the base of the forewings, and white hindwings with dark brown margins. The orange patch on the underside of the forewings is lighter in color and the white patch on the underside of the hindwings extends to the costal margins. There are four white spots on the forewings as well as a subapical band consisting of six smaller white spots.
