The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are pale sulphur-yellow, slightly speckled with fulvous and with an elongate black spot along the basal sixth of the costa, as well as small black semi-oval spots on the costa at two-fifths and two-thirds. The plical and second discal stigmata are black and there are two or three small black dots on the costa towards the apex, as well as four narrow semi-oval dark grey marks along the termen, with a few black scales. The hindwings are light grey.
