The wingspan is about 11 mm. The forewings are light chestnut with a light basal patch bounded on the outer edge by a dark vertical patch. There are two black spots at the basal angle of the cell and two white spots surrounded by black circles in the cell at one-half, joined by a black dash. There are also two faint white blotches from each set of cell markings to the subcosta.^[3]
