The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are purplish grey with the costal edge whitish yellow and the basal fourth darker purplish. There are dark purplish slightly curved shades from the costa at three-fifths to the dorsum before the tornus and from the costa at four-fifths to the tornus, enclosing a band rather darker than the ground colour. There is also a darker terminal line. The hindwings are light grey.
