The wingspan is 18-19 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous with the costal edge blackish towards the base. The stigmata are black, the plical slightly before the first discal. There is a light fuscous cloudy transverse line at three-fourths, usually faint, somewhat angulated outwards in the disc and more sharply inwards just above this. The hindwings are whitish.
