The wingspan is 17-18 mm. The forewings are brown with pronounced grey dusting, particularly in the basal half. At the basal two fifths of the costa is a small white spot preceded by dark grey and the basal third of the costa is yellowish. The costa at the middle, is dark grey, recurved, and followed outwardly by a shallow excavation, the latter white, broadened outwardly into a wedge-shaped mark, edged yellowish. On the costa, preceding the apex, is a slender white streak and the discal spot at the basal third is dark grey, at the end of the cell white. The tornus is dusted dark grey.
