The length of the forewings is 20–24 mm. The groundcolour of the forewings is creamy white, densely suffused with ochreous to dark brown scales. The hindwings are creamy white to light grey with a darkly bordered termen. Adults are on wing from March to June and again from November to December in two generations per year.
