Adults are very pale ochraceous, with the forewings rounded at the tips, and with a short longitudinal ferruginous streak in the disc before the middle, and with an oblique irregular interrupted ferruginous line, which extends to the costa beyond the middle. There is a submarginal line like the preceding one but less distinct and the costa is very slightly convex, while the exterior border is convex, but not oblique. The hindwings are cinereous brown.[2]
