The forewing and hindwing underside are brighter than in Xylophanes tersa and the brown markings are consequently more prominent.

There is a straight brown line, in some places indistinct, crossing the wing parallel to the distal margin.

There is a weakly defined yellow costal patch present apically.

The median band on the hindwing upperside has pale yellow spots.

The marginal area of the hindwing underside is divided by the veins, which are pale orange.
