The wingspan is about 25 mm. The forewings are pale greyish-ochreous, irregularly strewn with light grey transverse strigulae, and a few black specks. The costal edge is pale yellowish and there is a slender light grey dorsal streak from one-fourth to three-fourths, suffused pale yellowish above. The stigmata are small and blackish-grey, the plical rather obliquely beyond the first discal, the second discal semi-annular, a clearer space around it. The terminal edge is tinged yellowish. The hindwings are pale grey, with the costal third suffused ochreous-whitish.[2]
