This orange coloured fritillary has rows of dark dots or chevrons at the wing edges and black or brown lines more proximally.[2] The ventral sides of the wings are also orange with several rows of white dots.[3] Its wingspan is between 51 and 73 mm.[4]
Aphrodite fritillaries are sensitive to temperature [5][6] with population trajectories showing declines in response to climate warming trends.[6]
