[2] Eggs of this species measure around 2 millimetres in length with yellow hairs attached.

They are light yellow in early stages and gradually turn dark-greyish.

In the wild, their host plants include Terminalia, Lagerstroemia, Melastoma, Persea, Psidium, Punica and Sclerocarya.

The caterpillars are yellow in color with a popcorn-like red head, and have black lateral stripes along their body.

Tufts of yellow or orange hair grow along the sides of each segment.

A white vertical line runs down the dorsal side of the body.

They will spin an ochre cocoon with two humps and covered in black urticating hairs.

[5] Males are pale apple green in color and have bipectinate antennae.

There is a slight white gradient spanning the antimedial and postmedial area of the forewings, and the anal margin of the hindwings.
