The wingspan is 17–19 mm. The forewings are orange yellow, with the costa to three-fifths russet and the extreme edge narrowly black interrupted by a white streak at two-fifths. On the costa, beyond three-fifths, is an orange yellow spot with the extreme costal edge white. From the basal third to the costal three-fifths, an outwardly oblique, russet band, confluent with the dark costal shade, terminates in a point, the latter confluent with an outwardly curved series of black spots. The terminal area is russet with the two discal stigmata blackish, at one-third in the cell and at the end of the cell. There are scarlet irregular lines and blotches. The hindwings are buff shaded with brown. [2]
