The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are dark brown with oblique shades from the costa at the base and one-fifth reaching half across the wing. There is a dark violet-grey oblong blotch along the basal third of the dorsum and a slightly curved bluish-grey fascia crossing the wing just beyond these markings. A dark brown suffused streak is found from beyond the end of the cell inwards-oblique to the fold, with three or four white marks above the median area of the fold. There is a dark brown patch occupying the apical area, margined by a slightly incurved blackish line from the angle of the costa to the tornus, preceded on the lower two-thirds by a grey fascia triangularly expanded towards the dorsum, within this patch some black streaking between the veins, and a roundish blotch indicated by blackish marginal suffusion anteriorly and an obscure whitish curved pre-marginal line posteriorly. The hindwings are dark grey.[2]
