The wingspan is 28-32 mm. The forewings are pale greyish-ochreous faintly tinged reddish and with a rosy costal line leaving the extreme edge whitish. The markings are pale fuscous, often faint or absent and there is a dentate line from one-fourth of the costa to the mid-dorsum, as well as a line of dots from the costa beyond the middle to four-fifths, there bent to the end of the dorsum before the tornus. There is also a terminal series of dots. The hindwings are whitish.[3]
