The forewings are white, rather densely dusted with black and blackish-fuscous scales.

There are three conspicuous sub-dorsal black dots and on the middle of the cell and near the middle of the costa the black scaling is also more pronounced but does not form definite spots or other markings.

The hindwings are pale whitish fuscous, somewhat darker toward the apex.

At the end against the midrib is a hole from which the larva discharges its frass and adjacent to this hole along the midrib is a fine silken web under which the larva retires when not feeding.

They have a yellowish-white body, faintly tinged with pink on dorsal surface, and a dark brown head.
