The wingspan is 12-13 mm. The forewings are brownish-ochreous, often violet-tinged, sometimes obscurely strigulated with ferruginous-brown. There is a streak of dark brown suffusion along the costa from the base to five-sixths. The dorsal half is suffused dark violet-brownish, variably mixed or strigulated by dark ferruginous-fuscous, the stigmata sometimes perceptible as ferruginous-brown spots, the plical beyond the first discal.
