The wingspan is 20–23 mm. The forewings are light brussels brown with the extreme edge of the costa rufous. There are twelve tiny salmon-buff spots from the apical half of the costa, around the termen to the tornus and in the middle of the cell, a fuscous spot is found. On the fold is a similarly colored, larger spot and a short fuscous transverse dash is found at the end of the cell. Subterminally, from vein 2 to vein 7, is a series of five fuscous spots, each preceded inwardly by buff scales and the termen is narrowly edged fuscous. The hindwings are very pale grayish fuscous.[2]
