The wingspan is about 23 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous, on the dorsal three-fifths brownish-tinged, and with scattered dark fuscous specks. There is a blackish dot towards the costa near the base. The discal stigmata are small and dark fuscous, the first with a similar dot obliquely before and above it connected by a fuscous cloud, and with a more conspicuous blackish dot obliquely above and beyond it. The hindwings are whitish-ochreous.[https://archive.org/stream/exoticmicrolepid03meyr#page/28/mode/1up Exot. Microlep. 3 (1-2): 28] {{PD-notice}}
