The wingspan is 12–14 mm for males and 13–15.5 mm for females. Adults resemble a small Agnidra corticata or Agnidra vinacea in coloration and colour pattern, but are distinguished by translucent patches at the distal end of the cell and well-defined confluent postmedial fascia on the forewings and hindwings.[2]
