The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are pale fuscous with the costal edge whitish yellowish and the dorsum suffused with darker on the basal fourth. There is a straight cloudy fascia of rather dark fuscous suffusion from one-fourth of the costa to the middle of the dorsum, more broadly suffused downwards and a rather small dark fuscous spot on the costa in the middle, as well as a semicircular blotch about three-fourths, where a faint cloudy darker curved line runs to the dorsum before the tornus. There is also a dark fuscous transverse dot on the end of the cell, followed by some indistinct darker irroration. A marginal row of dark fuscous dots is found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are pale ochreous yellowish, becoming deeper towards the apex.[2]
