The wingspan is about 26 mm. The forewings are light brassy-yellowish with the costa ochreous-bronzy. All veins and also some interneural lines are marked with orange-ferruginous streaks, occupying all the wing except for slender interspaces. There are several golden-metallic dots towards the apex, five along the termen, and four partially black-edged arranged in two pairs towards the tornus. The hindwings are blackish.
