Medium size butterfly, 4-5 cm wingspan, females half a centimetre bigger than the male. The wing upper side is orange colour with black and yellow markings as well as a ring of blue spots around the edge of the wings. The underwing is dark brown with a yellow band and bluish lunettes close to the apex. Both sexes are very similar in design and colour.
