The length of the forewings is 9–11 mm for males and 12–14 mm for females. The forewings are white, suffused with rusty brown. There is a rusty patch along the costal margin past the end of the discal cell and a thin wavy brown line across the cell, around a brown spot and back down the wing to the anal angle. There are also brown dots on the veins at the outer margin and a brown dot near the base. The hindwings are white with brown marginal shading at the anal angle. Adults are on wing from October to July.^[2]
