The wingspan is about 28 mm.

The second discal stigma is moderate and blackish and there is some greyish-ochreous suffusion on the costa about three-fourths, where a slightly curved or bent shade runs to the tornus, with some faint whitish suffusion beyond this. The hindwings are light grey, tinged whitish towards the base.[2]
