The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are ochreous fuscous, finely sprinkled with dark fuscous and with the basal third of the dorsum suffused with dark fuscous. There is a straight slender irregular-edged whitish streak from the middle of the costa to two-thirds of the dorsum and a dark fuscous dot in the disc at three-fifths. An ochreous whitish dot is found on the costa at three-fourths and a slender twice sinuate ochreous-whitish line runs from the costa near the apex to the tornus. The hindwings are dark fuscous, somewhat lighter towards the base.[2]
