The wingspan is 13–14 mm (0.51–0.55 in). The forewings are whitish ochreous, largely suffusedly streaked with brownish ochreous, and irregularly sprinkled with blackish. The stigmata are small, cloudy and blackish, the plical beneath the first discal. There is a small cloudy spot of blackish sprinkles on the costa at two-thirds.
