The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous, the costal edge pinkish-tinged and with dark reddish-fuscous dots above and below the fold at one-fifth. The stigmata is represented by small round dark reddish-fuscous spots obscurely edged with whitish, the first discal largest, the plical beneath the first discal. There is an irregular curved and sinuate indistinct pale line from three-fourth of the costa to the dorsum before the tornus and there are marginal blackish dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen.
