Underside paler yellow, unmarked, except that a very faint indication of marginal dots and a small upper discocellular streak on both wings, and a dot above the cell and discal transverse streaks on hind wing. Fore wing with a sub basal oval patch of compactly matted salmon coloured scales, which extend below and partly above the basal portion of the median vein. Female. Upper side paler yellow.
