The wingspan is 9–10 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous with two rather oblique wedge-shaped whitish-ochreous spots from the costa posteriorly, reaching half across the wing. The hindwings are blackish-fuscous with cloudy light fuscous suffused transverse streaks before and beyond the middle, the second indented in the middle. There is a sharply-defined sub-metallic prismatic-fuscous streak from four-fifths of the costa to below the apex and continued along the termen to the middle.[2]
