The forewing length is 10.9 mm for males and 11.5 mm for females. The costal area of the forewings is brown. The basal area is a mixture of white, pale-ferruginous and brown scales. There is a not well-defined ovate spot. The hindwings have a marginal shading of dark gray and the veins are heavily highlighted in dark gray. The areas between the veins are white. The anal fold is white with a dark-gray striped pattern.
Etymology
The specific name is derived from the Latin tumeo (meaning swell) and refers to the swollen base of the free saccular extension in the male genitalia.
