The wingspan is 16–19 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, in males with a roundish impression beneath the costa at two-fifths, containing a tuft of whitish-ochreous scales from the upper margin, covered normally by a flap of long fuscous scales from the anterior margin. The extreme costal edge is ochreous whitish on the posterior three-fifths. The hindwings are dark fuscous, somewhat thinly scaled towards the base, with indications of two or three semi-transparent streaks, in males a more distinct pale suffused streak from the base through the disc to beyond the middle.[2]
