The wingspan is 13–16 mm. The forewings are yellow-ochreous, suffusedly sprinkled with brown or dark fuscous and with the base of the costa more or less suffused with dark fuscous. The discal stigmata are dark fuscous, sometimes with a transverse mark of dark fuscous suffusion between the second discal and the dorsum. There is a dark fuscous patch along the termen from the apex, more or less narrowed downwards and not reaching the tornus. The hindwings are pale grey or in females sometimes grey.[4]
