Adults are brown, the forewings reddish ferruginous for one-third of the length from the base, this hue bounded by an angular transverse whitish line. There is a slightly curved transverse submarginal whitish line, the space between the two lines irregularly whitish-speckled. The marginal points are whitish and diffuse.
