It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Illinois, Maine, New York, Ohio and South Carolina.

At the beginning of costal cilia is a whitish spot less overlaid with fuscous than the rest of the wing, and opposite on the dorsal margin is a similar but smaller spot.

At basal third of the dorsal margin is a short, transverse, oblique dark streak reaching the fold, on which it widens out to a small dark spot, sometimes more prominent than the streak and edged exteriorly with a few white scales.

Between and immediately below these dots is an oblong, longitudinal, dark-brown streak.

At base of cilia, around the costal, apical and dorsal edge, is a row of equidistant dark-brown spots.
