The wingspan is 8.8–9.5 mm. The forewing ground colour is white, scattered with black scales and with three indistinct yellow longitudinal lines. The basal third of the costa is black and the fringe scales concolorous with the forewing, although some of the longer scales distally are brown or dark grey, forming an indistinct double fringe line.
