The wingspan is 7–8 mm. The forewings are ochreous-whitish, irrorated with pale grey, with some scattered black scales, as well as three black spots on the costa, margined beneath with brownish-ochreous, the first at one-fourth, connected with the base by a costal line of black irroration, others before the middle and at two-thirds. There is a small light brownish-ochreous spot beneath the middle of the disc, connected with the dorsum by a group of black scales. There is also a group of black scales on the tornus, and a small pale-ochreous spot near the termen beyond it. The hindwings are grey.[4]
