The wingspan is 16–18 mm. The forewings are purplish fuscous. The stigmata are black, the plical rather obliquely beyond the first discal. There is a whitish dot on the costa at two-thirds, where sometimes a very faint pale curved or bent line runs to the dorsum and there is a blackish terminal line. The hindwings are grey with an oblique dark grey discal mark.[2]
