The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are light brownish with black subbasal dots on the costa and in the middle, as well as a flattened-triangular black blotch on the middle of the costa, reaching one-third across the wing. The stigmata are hardly indicated. There is a small cloudy fuscous spot on the costa at three-fourths and a row of almost marginal dark fuscous dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen, as well as a row of fuscous marginal dots between these. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
