Description

Adults identified by "near-entirely red genae (cheeks), black cross veins, and pointed hind wingtips." Larvae feature "two dark stripes on the head capsule, three pairs of prominent white spots on the thorax, often with the hindmost pair connected by a slight band, and otherwise largely dark body color lacking pale markings through the middle of the abdomen. The legs are often black, unlike in allies." (BugGuide, 2024)
