The wingspan is 18–20 mm. The forewings are bister brown with tawny-olive irroration (sprinkles) and in the outer half of the wing considerable ochraceous-tawny scaling. The costa is ochraceous tawny mixed with tawny olive and from the basal third of the costa an ill-defined tawny-olive line extends to the fold where it continues outwardly to the tornus. The hindwings are sepia.[2]
