The first discal stigma is large, with the small plical below it and the second at the end of the cell. There is a series of brownish spots along the termen and three to four dots at their inner side. There is also a large triagonal brownish suffusion on the tornus. The hindwings are greyish brown.
Etymology
The species name refers to the creamy white wing colour and is derived from leukos (meaning white).[2]
