This species is similarly sized with y-inversa, or perhaps a little larger. It is less brightly colored. The fore wings are dusky ochre with two blackish lines ; the first crossing the wing a little obliquely at the middle; the second before the apex from costa to external margin. The lines do not meet at costa as in its ally. The space between the lines is discolorous, being somewhat grayish. Hind wings more yellowish, concolorous. Beneath immaculate, like hind wings above. Thorax like fore wings. Antennæ simple.
