The wingspan is 22–25 mm. The forewings are grey-whitish mixed with dark fuscous scales, which tend to form streaks on the veins. There is an obscure longitudinally elongate brown spot at the end of the cell and the hindmargin is clear brown except at the anal angle. The hindwings are ochreous-fuscous-whitish.
The larvae feed on the foliage[2] of Elattostachys xylocarpa.[3]
