The wingspan is 13–18 mm. The forewings are brown grey or fuscous with a white line along the costa throughout, more or less thickened towards the base, continued around the termen somewhat waved to the tornus. There is a somewhat irregular slightly curved or bent white line from the middle of the costa to two-thirds of the dorsum. The hindwings are rather dark grey, darker in females.
