. The wings are painted in gray-brown color. The forewings have two round spots, the first spot is located in the center of the costal margin, and the second spot is located at the base of the wing. Additionally, there are a number of irregular-shaped spots at the apex of the wing, which extends to the M
vein. The hindwings have a lighter shade than the forewings. The inner margin of the hindwing is marked with pink, but the costal margin has a yellow-pink coloration. There are a series of small pink spots along the outer margin of the hindwing. On the ventral side can be seen the same marking pattern as that of the dorsal side. The eyes are dark black. Antennae are pale pink. The clypeus is painted with a dark brown; epicranium has a pale brown coloration. Patagium is colored with white and marked by a black spot in the middle. A collar is also white with a pink border, marked by a black spot in the middle. The dorsal side of the thorax is white and it has a number of black spots. The hindmost group of spots is divided with T-shaped pink mark. Abdomen is pink dorsally, with three rows of black spots.
Valve is curved in the middle; it tapers from the base to the middle and becomes narrow at the distal part. Lateral lobes of vinculum are wide. Juxta is cup-shaped, very broad. The uncus forms a rhombus with slightly rounded corners. Phallus has a sclerotized area in the apical part.
A newly reported subspecies from West Flores shows differences in the male genitalia comparing to the nominative subspecies,
