The wingspan is 11-12 mm. The forewings are dark violet-fuscous, the costa more blue-tinged and with variable more or less expressed ochreous-yellow or orange streaks between the veins, sometimes only slightly indicated, one along the fold sometimes strong. There is a roundish dark fuscous blotch in the disc before the middle, and a sub-oblique transverse blotch at three-fifths, these sometimes partially edged orange or wholly orange. The terminal edge is orange. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[3]
