The wingspan is 12–13 mm. The forewings are ochreous-whitish, with the markings light fuscous irrorated black. There is a small spot on the base of the costa and a slender irregular sometimes incomplete transverse fascia near the base. A broad irregular fascia runs parallel to the termen before the middle, closely followed by a narrower irregular metallic-indigo-blue fascia edged black. There is a semi-oval blotch on the dorsum at two-thirds and a broad posterior light brownish band irrorated blackish on the lower half, leaving a narrow streak of groundcolour around the apex and termen, marked with three white dots on the costa and sprinkled white towards the costa posteriorly. The hindwings are pale grey.[2]
