width 0.6 times length, with a prominent costal fold reaching Sc. Termen undulate, concave between veins; anal margin prominently curved, w-shaped. Ground color brown, each cell except 2A, with areas of dark-brown, almost black scales. Three opaque, white, narrow, median macules from mid-costa caudad, located in Sc, R1 and discal cells (DC), with dark scaling prominent along veins separating the macules. Macules in Sc and R1 usually extend from vein to vein, macule in discal cell situated in its anterior half and typically the narrowest, while macule in Sc is the broadest. Shape of macules variable, most frequently rectangular, triangular and trapezoidal for the Sc, R1, and DC macules, respectively. Apical cluster of three opaque white macules in R3, R4 and R5 cells, smaller than median macules, R3 macule largest, R4 smallest, in some specimens dot-like; macule R4 offset basally and the cluster of the three macules is crescent-shaped. Finally, two postmedian opaque white macules in cells M3 and CuA1. Macule M3 occupies very basal area of cell between M3 and CuA1 and has a triangular shape similar to R1 macule. Macule CuA1 located at base of M3 macule and oddly-shaped, varying from rectangular, to trapezoid, triangular and crescent-shaped; the two macules form a roughly C-shaped arrangement. Each of these eight opaque macules surrounded by darker, almost black scales. In addition to surrounding the macules, similarly colored dark scales form four dark patches in the median area of CuA2 cell, two cephalad and two caudad, the cephalic pair sometimes fused in a dumbbell-shaped streak; a patch at base of CuA1 cell; two patches, just caudad of apical macules, in median area of M1 and M2, the latter patch being smaller and basad of the former; last, and smallest patch situated in R2 and in some specimens occupies entire cell. Dark brown scales (intermediate in color to the dark, almost black, scales described above) and brown background are formed into streaks in the marginal area; two streaks located in each cell between veins reaching the margin, except in 2A. Streaks start from the margin, in each cell from each vein, and are directed basad and towards each other in a cell, converging in postmedial area; streaks around vein M2 and caudad of CuA2 not well developed and lacking in paler specimens (in particular the M2 streaks), creating a paler appearance of the marginal region of M1 and M2 cells. Similar intermediate-color scales line up the basal area of the forewing. Ivory-colored scales, paler than the background, cover the areas distad, between, and proximad two anterior dark patches in CuA2 cell, distad to the cluster of apical white macules, distad discal cell, and form streaks from the margin in the middle of each cell, in between dark streaks. The amount of ivory-colored scaling varies between individuals. Finally, somewhat yellower and longer ivory-colored scales cover the basal area of the wing (overscaling).

termen undulate, concave between veins. Pattern similar to forewing, in particular posterior to Rs vein. Opaque macules in cells Rs, M2 and CuA1 homologous to macules on forewing. Main differences from forewing include absence of median row of three macules (no macules in Sc+R1 and discal cells), more basal location of dark patches in M1 and M2 (in line with the opaque macules), separation of CuA1 macule into two small macules in some specimens, and more extensive ivory-scaled areas, present between CuA1 and CuA2 dark patches. Cell Sc+R1 with a median dark patch, median brown streak and ivory-colored area between.

Cells CuA2 and 2A mostly covered in whitish, ivory-colored scales between the darker patches and streaks, which are composed of much paler scales, as the dorsal background. Dark scales, matching those of dark patches on dorsal surface, are present basad of opaque macules, frequently reaching the base of each cell, and distad of the macules, reaching the costa in cells Sc and R1, and forming an edge to each macule in other cells; also filling basal half of cell R2. Hindwing ventral pattern more similar to that of dorsal surface than on forewing, except prominent white scaling at wing base, and areas of white scales in basal half of DC.
