The wingspan is about 20 mm. The forewings are shining, purplish fuscous, with a narrow, outwardly oblique, pale primrose-yellow fascia crossing the wing from the middle of the costa almost to the dorsum, and with a small triangular costal spot of the same colour before the apex. The hindwings are fuscous.
