The head is smooth-scaled; the antenna is about 3/4 as long as the forewing, the scape bears a pecten, the pedicel is reduced and hardly visible, the flagellum is not ciliate, in the male sometimes at least partly weakly serrate, usually in the distal third, and is often annulated with distinct white and dark-grey rings (

). The forewing is usually rather narrow and the hindwing is lanceolate, narrower than its fringe scales. The forewing ground colour is usually unicolourous white to brown or occasionally grey; in several species there is a pale spot of varying shape and distinctiveness at about distal 3/5 of the dorsal margin; sometimes darker scales are scattered over the wing or condensed to form an indistinct patch in the middle of it in species/specimens with pale wing colour. Venation is as follows in

). The male genitalia are capsule-shaped; the uncus is distinctive, either bilobed or undivided and hook-shaped; the gnathos is articulated from the tegumen, curved, hook-shaped, without scobination, The ventral margins of the valvae are connected to each other with membrane; the valvae are undivided, with somewhat varying shape distally. The juxta is a simple sclerotized plate, laterally bent towards the dorsal side supporting the valva both ventrally and laterally, without lateral or distal lobes. The vinculum is tapered into an elongate and broad saccus. The phallus is not differentiated apart from occasionally having scobination near the apex in the

The papillae anales of the female genitalia are covered by long setae, otherwise not differentiated; the ovipositor is not telescopic; the posterior margin of segment 8 is markedly setose, and sternum 8 is ventrolaterally with setose areas that are sometimes shaped as lobes; on the dorsal side of the ostium bursae there is a sclerotized plate; the ostium bursae+antrum is funnel-shaped, separated from the rest of the sclerotized ductus by a somewhat membranous zone. The ductus seminalis is situated near the inception of the ductus and the corpus bursae. The corpus bursae contains one or two signa. One of them is almost rounded, dentate; the other, when present, is formed by a dense group of scobinations.
