The forewings are dark silky brown, crossed by several very indistinct pale brown waved lines, and with a very narrow submarginal waved line extending from the apex to the anal angle and a black dot at the end of the cell. The hindwings are a little lighter than the forewings, mottled with pale brown near the anal angle.[3]
