The habitat consists of rocky areas in the mountain-desert transition zone and high desert.

The forewings are streaky medium gray to dark brown gray with streaks of warm light orange tan to yellow tan at the postreniform patch, in the fold, and in the large pointed claviform spot.

The reniform and orbicular spots are outlined in black with paler peripheral and darker central scaling.

The distal forewing is streaky due to black veins and pale-gray scales and the transverse lines are obsolete.

The hindwings are light whitish gray with brown-gray marginal shading and dark veins, darker in females.
