The wingspan is 14–15 mm.The forewing is whitish ochreous, irrorated irregularly with brown and dark fuscous. The inner line is indistinct; the outer line is irregular, oblique, dark fuscous and posteriorly whitish edged. The cellspot is small, dark, outwardly whitish edged. The subterminal line is straight, whitish, ill-defined and preceded by fuscous suffusion, running to the apex. The hindwing is grey. [3] Adults are on wing from the end of May to the beginning of October.[4]
