The wingspan is 12–13 mm. The forewings are light ashen grey, the scales infused fuscous below the tip and again tipped white. There are scattered slightly ochreous scales, especially on the dorsum. An almost faint oblique dark shade is found from costal third, ending in the general dark central coloration. The plical stigma is blackish at about one-third and the first discal is the same, somewhat beyond the plical and halfway between it and the dorsum.
