The wingspan is 19–20 mm. The forewings are light brownish or brownish-ochreous with the plical and second discal stigma small and dark fuscous. There are three very irregular waved-dentate slender lines of dark fuscous irroration, the first slightly curved from the costa at one-third to the dorsum at two-fifths, the second suffused brownish, from the middle of the costa obtusely angulated just beyond the second discal stigma to the dorsum at two-thirds, the third forming a series of dark dots connected by a waved line towards the costa, from the costa at two-thirds strongly excurved to the dorsum near the tornus, indented above the middle and sinuate on the lower portion. There is a marginal series of blackish dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen, on the apical part of the costa surrounded by whitish suffusion. The hindwings are grey.[2]
