The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are ochreous-grey. The stigmata are moderate, obscure and dark grey, slightly tending to be pale-edged, the plical rather enlarged and oblique, almost beneath the first discal. There is an obscure lighter excurved transverse line from a whitish dot on the costa before three-fourths to the dorsum at four-fifths, indented above the middle, preceded and followed by moderate fasciae of darker grey suffusion. There are four dark fuscous terminal dots. The hindwings are grey.[3]
