The wingspan is 13–14 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous-yellowish, with some scattered dark fuscous specks and a blackish mark on the base of the costa. There are small wedge-shaped blackish spots on the costa at one-fifth and two-fifths. A triangular blackish-grey blotch is found on the costa about two-thirds, reaching half across the wing and becoming pale brownish-ochreous at the apex and a small blackish mark on the costa just beyond this, as well as a pale brownish-ochreous irregular transverse blotch crossing the fold at two-fifths of the wing, irregularly edged with dark fuscous specks. A small blackish-grey spot is found on the dorsum towards the tornus and there is an irregular dark fuscous streak along the termen. The hindwings are light grey.[2]
