The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are bronzy ochreous with the costal and dorsal edges white from the base to the band and with a white subcostal line almost from the base to the band, touching the costa anteriorly. There is a white median line from the base to the band and a white subdorsal line from one-fourth to the band, as well as a broad irregular-edged orange band extending from before the middle to two-thirds, containing four golden-metallic spots (two dorsal, one subcostal beyond the first dorsal, edged posteriorly with a black speck, and one costal above the second dorsal). There is a white streak from the band along the termen to the apex. The hindwings are whitish.^[2]
