There is also a rectangular black patch from the outer margin of the cell to the distal 1/6 of the forewing, confluent with two black subtriangular patches from the costa and termen before apex respectively, forming a broad Y-shaped pattern.

The hindwings are light grayish brown with a gray fringe.
Etymology
