Superiormente il colore di fondo è marrone scuro con lunule marginali arancione in serie completa. La pagina inferiore ha colorazione variabile dal grigio al bruno con punti neri cerchiati di bianco, assenti nella regione basale, ed una serie di macchie rosso-arancioni brillanti.

Avete tanti generi di farfalle nella vostra zona. Penso che vengano appena là a fargli prendere la loro immagine. Ciò è un esemplare bello con i colori splendidi. Bei particolari. You have so many kinds of butterflies in your area. I think they come there just to have you take their picture. This is a lovely specimen with gorgeous colors. Beautiful details.
