The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are whitish-grey faintly purple-tinged, with dark fuscous dots. The extreme costal edge is whitish and the first discal spot is found at one-third, the plical beyond it and the second discal before two-thirds. There is a slender line from the plical dot angled upwards, returning to the fold, where it joins a curved series of dots from the second discal. There is also a curved series of dots from beneath two-thirds of the costa to the tornus, indented in the middle, as well as a terminal series of dots. The hindwings are grey-whitish.[3]
