The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are shining white with the costal edge dark fuscous towards the base and with a slight elongate dark fuscous mark on the dorsum at one-fourth. There is a slender very oblique dark fuscous streak from the middle of the dorsum, reaching nearly halfway across the wing and a small cloudy fuscous spot on the dorsum before the tornus, as well as a very oblique wedge-shaped dark fuscous mark from the costa towards the apex and a small irregular black apical spot. The hindwings are grey whitish.[2]
