The wingspan is 10–11 mm. The forewings are brown, on the dorsal half or sometimes wholly suffused fuscous. There is a broad white supramedian streak from the base to two-thirds, not quite reaching the costal edge on its basal half, then narrowed to the extremity. There is a very oblique slender white streak from the costa beyond the middle to the extremity of a black subapical dash and there are two short white transverse marks from the costa beyond this, and a white wedge-shaped spot along the apical part of the costa, as well as a white suboval blotch almost on the lower half of the termen, marked with four or five fine black longitudinal lines. The hindwings are light grey, somewhat darker posteriorly.[2]
