The length of the forewings is 8–9.2 mm (0.31–0.36 in). The ground color of the forewings is white, but the costa from the base nearly to the apex is broadly dark gray-brown. The ground color of the hindwings is white, but pale ochreous-brownish toward the margins. Adults are on wing from June to September.[1]
