The wingspan is 22-23 mm. The forewings are dark ferruginous-brown, with irregular transverse paler striae slightly irrorated with whitish, the interspaces usually more or less mixed with blackish-grey except towards the costa. There is a slightly paler curved transverse band before the middle, irrorated with white and pale rosy towards the costa and towards the posterior two-fifths of the costa, the striae become white, partly tinged with pale rosy. The first discal stigma is blackish and distinct, preceded by a small blackish dot obliquely above it, the second is dark grey and indistinct. The hindwings are white with a dark fuscous apical blotch covering two-fifths of the wing, the anterior edge straight.^[2]
