The length of the forewings is 13.5-18 mm for males and 16.5-19 mm for females. Adults are similar to Callidrepana ovata and Callidrepana patrana, but have a dotted rectangular marking at the end of the cell on the forewings. The coloration is similar to patrana, but in many specimens the ground-colour is dull greyish yellow.[3]
