The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are pale brownish, finely whitish sprinkled, with a few scattered blackish scales and with two small confluent black spots on the base of the costa, the costal edge is blackish to the antemedian patch. There are irregular sub-triangular blackish patches on the costa before and beyond the middle, the first reaching to beyond the fold, the second not reaching halfway across the wing. There is a raised transverse mark of a few blackish scales representing the second discal stigma and the apical area is suffused with grey, mixed with blackish scales, intersected by an obscure pale curved shade from three-fourths of the costa to the tornus. The hindwings are grey, paler and thinly scaled towards the base.[3]
