The wingspan is 8–10 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous with a pale blue-metallic oblique fasciate streak from the costa near the base, nearly meeting the apex of an erect mark from the dorsum at one-third, with beyond them a pale blue-metallic rather oblique transverse linear mark in the disc and rather short oblique wedge-shaped pale blue-metallic streaks from the costa before and beyond the middle, silvery white on the costal edge. There is a pale blue-metallic spot in the disc beyond the middle, connected with the dorsum by some irregular strigulation. A quadrate ochreous-white spot occupies the tornal angle, edged anteriorly by a bluish-silvery streak and the apical area above this is bronzy, with a bluish-silvery dot near the apex of the preceding streak, and a pale blue-metallic spot on the costa towards the apex. There is sometimes a white mark along the apical part of the costa, as well as a fine black marginal line around the apex and termen. The hindwings are dark fuscous, lighter and thinly scaled in the disc.[2]
