The wingspan is about 24 mm. The forewings are light buff, with the extreme costal edge white, and with inwardly, narrowly clay color. There is a clay color blotch from the middle of the costa, around the outer end of the cell to the fold. From the basal third of the costa, an ill-defined clay color fascia extends to the dorsum and in the middle of the cell, a fuscous speck is found. There is a well-defined fuscous spot at the end of the cell. The hindwings are whitish with slight buff shading terminally.[2]
