The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are dark grey irrorated blackish with obscure blackish costal spots at one-sixth and one-third, beneath the former an ochreous dash. There are small raised ochreous spots representing the stigmata, the plical near and obliquely beyond the first discal, an additional spot near the costa beyond the second blackish spot forming with these an oblique series. There is also some undefined ochreous suffusion towards the margins near the apex. The hindwings are rather dark grey.
The larvae feed between appressed leaves of Ougeinia dalbergioides.
