The wingspan is 25−30 mm. The forewings are dark greyish brown with some white powdering, black along the veins. The antemedial line is invisible and the discal spots are blackish brown and separated.

The hindwings are greyish white, light brown along the costa and veins.

Etymology

The species name is derived from the Latin prefix furv- (meaning black) and Latin vena (meaning vein) and refers to the forewing with black scales along its veins.[1]
