The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are light brownish ochreous sprinkled with rather dark fuscous. The base of the costa is suffusedly irrorated dark fuscous and the stigmata are blackish, the plical rather obliquely before the first discal, a small blackish dot between the first and second discal, some irregular fuscous suffusion between the stigmata. There is an undefined spot of fuscous suffusion on the costa at two-thirds and a marginal series of small irregular dark fuscous dots on the posterior part of the costa and termen.
