The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are crimson, irregularly speckled and dotted yellowish and with two small very oblique grey marks from the costa towards the base, as well as two cloudy grey transverse shade-lines, the first rather excurved from the middle of the costa to the dorsum before the middle, thickest in the disc, the second rising very oblique from the costa at two-thirds, strongly exeurved near the apex and termen to the dorsum near the tornus. The hindwings are pale rosy-pink, deeper posteriorly, slightly tinged greyish towards the base.[2]
