The forewings are yellow, with light veins and the margins of cells fuscous. The clypeus has fuscous arcs, of which one is visible dorsally. The female pregenital sternite is trilobate in shape, with a slight median projection and some dark markings on the posterior margin to either side. The male subgenital plates are longer than the pygofer and have macrosetae. Adult males are 2.5-2.9 mm long, while females are 2.5 mm; submacropterous females are 2.5-2.7 mm long.
