The basal patch is dark fuscous, its edge rather rounded, followed by some grey marks towards costa and dorsum. The lower half of the central fascia is fuscous spotted with black, preceded by a grey mark. The ocellus is edged with leaden-metallic, enclosing three or four black dots. There are some brown or ferruginous and leaden-metallic streaks towards the apex. The hindwings are light grey. The larva is purplish-brown, beneath whitish ; head brown ; plate of 2 black :[3]

Adults are on wing from late May to August in western Europe.

The larvae feed on various roses, including Rosa multiflora, Rosa davurica and Rosa rugosa.
