The wingspan is 20-21 mm. The forewings are pale brownish-ochreous sometimes strewn with strigulae of blackish irroration, sometimes partially suffused with feruginous-brown in the disc and towards the dorsum, and on the veins posteriorly. There is sometimes a round spot of blackish suffusion in disc at one-third, and an oblique spot from dorsum at one-fourth directed towards it. The stigmata is blackish or dark ferruginous-brown, the discal approximated, the plical rather before the first discal.
