The wingspan of the Doxogenes pyrophanes is about 20 millimetres. The forewings are deep orange in colouration, with the markings shining purplish-leaden-grey, with a small basal patch. There is a small spot in the disc at one-fifth and a very large patch occupying the entire apical two-thirds except towards the margins anteriorly, enclosing an irregularly triangular patch of ground colour in the disc about three-fifths. The hindwings are grey.[2]
