WS: 28mm (Lederer, 1863)

"100. Coenostola martyralis. 28 mm. Dusty reddish brown, the fringes on the forewings from the middle to the inner angle, whitish on the back. Both blemishes small, dull gray-brown; across the round a dusty brown, slightly curved transverse line; the outer transverse line also dusty gray-brown, at the front edge far from the kidney-blemish, making in the midst of an angular projection, under it straight to the inner margin, over the hind wings, which still have a dark center, continued in the same way. Bottom gray-brown, all drawing extinguished. - 1 ♂ Mus. Ca e s. (Originalis has the same design on dusty brown-gray background and is twice as big, according to the original, in the British Museum, but changes in size, since a piece in the Imperial Museum, in which I otherwise see no difference, is no bigger than martyralis.)" - Google translation of original description from Lederer, (1863).
