6mm. The forewing markings are very reduced, punctate except for a narrow,
obliquely triangular mark medially on the costa. The male genitalia have narrow
valves with a sinuous costal margin and a ventral one that is evenly curved over
the distal half. These margins meet at an upwardly falcate, acute apex. The
harpe is similar to that of cowleyi
but slightly narrower and more hooked. The aedeagus is also similar to that of
cowleyi.
