The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are white with an irregular dark fuscous streak from the base of the costa to the disc at one-fourth, its apex forming an angulated hook above and a sharp projection beneath. There is a small dark fuscous mark on the costa before one-fourth and an oblique curved dark fuscous mark on the end of the cell, as well as a more or less interrupted fuscous and dark fuscous line from the middle of the costa to three-fourths of the dorsum excurved behind this. A small dark fuscous spot is found on the costa near the apex and sometimes there are two series of faint pale greyish spots towards the termen. A series of dark fuscous marks is found around the posterior half of the costa, termen and tornus. The hindwings are ochreous-whitish with the costal margin expanded from the base to three-fifths, with long rough projecting hairscales, whitish above and dark grey beneath, and also with a projection of scales at four-fifths, so as to appear excavated between these, and with a long subcostal pencil of pale oehreous-yellowish hairs lying beneath the forewings. The apical margin is marked interruptedly with dark fuscous.[2]
