The wingspan is 12-14 mm. The forewings are pale fuscous, irrorated with whitish and sprinkled with dark fuscous. The stigmata are large, dark fuscous and undefined, with the plical obliquely beyond the first discal, sometimes additional dots between and above the discal, and beneath the second discal. The posterior half of the costa is marked with more or less defined white dots alternating with darker spots. The hindwings are light grey, paler towards the base.[2]
