) Forewing length of males 8.5-9 mm, of female 9.5 mm. Forewings of pale-yellow ground colour, in male intermixed with brown. Antemedian line brown, indistinct from middle to dorsum in male, in female sharply angled. Proximal discoidal stigmata ellipsoid, distal discoidal stigmata narrow, lower part partly filled with brown scales. Postmedian line fine, greyish brown, slightly dentate, convex curved from costa to CuA1, with an abrupt dent inward at CuA2, but at this point only inner margin is visible, then continuing slightly dentate towards dorsum. Distal area along postmedian line and along margin less brown tinged in male. Black dots at veins on margin of the wings. Fringes yellowish white, some with brown tips. Underside whitish, pale yellow at costa, discoidal stigmata and postmedian line grey, the latter blackish at costa, between postmedian line and apex three minute black dots at costa. Hindwing yellowish white, very slightly grey in apex. Discoidal spot faint, grey. Postmedian line grey, but very faint and only indicated at apex. Black dots at the margin of the wings at the veins. Fringes whitish, some with brown tips. Underside whitish, at costa more yellowish, inner and outer discoidal spot blackish or dark grey, postmedian line faint, grey, but starting with a blackish dot at costa. Marginal area at apex slightly greyish-brown.
