The wingspan is 37–45 mm. It is very similar to Temnora burdoni, but the ground colour of the upperside of the body and wings are a little darker brown red. The forewing outer margin is slightly more incised below the apex than in Temnora uluguru. The hindwing upperside is more reddish than the forewing upperside, with a broad brown marginal band.
