The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are white, the dorsal half tinged and irregularly irrorated fuscous. There is a subcostal groove from the base to two-fifths enclosing a white expansible hair-pencil and covered by a fringe of white scales. A short dark fuscous median dash is found near the base and there is a suffused dark fuscous oblique-elongate spot representing the first discal stigma, from before the middle of the dorsum a suffused dark fuscous triangular blotch extends towards this. The second discal stigma is dark fuscous, a faint oblique fuscous line from the middle of the costa to before this. There is an oblong dark fuscous blotch on the dorsum before the tornus, a nearly straight dark fuscous line from the costa at three-fourths running to the posterior angle of this. About seven dark fuscous marginal dots are found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are whitish, tinged grey posteriorly.[2]
