The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are pale-grey with some fuscous irroration and a fine blackish streak along the fold from the base, and another from the base beneath the costa to one-fifth. A blackish dot is found in the middle of the disc at three-fifths, connected by a fine line with another at four-fifths. The hindwings are pale-grey.[2]
