The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are pale yellowish-white, with fuscous markings. There are three narrow transverse fasciae, the first two somewhat dot-like, the first from the costa at one-sixth, the second from the costa about one-third, both continued obscurely to the dorsum. The third is slightly inwards curved, from the costa at four-fifths to the dorsum at four-fifths. There is a lunate mark, transversely placed, above the middle, just before the third fascia. The hindwings are thinly scaled and greyish-white.[3]
