The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are yellowish-brown with extensive dark speckling. There is a blackish smudge near the middle of wing, bordered by a reddish-orange smudge below. A diffuse gray shade line runs diagonally from the middle of the wing toward the inner margin, then bends sharply and runs diagonally toward the apex. The hindwings are uniformly brownish-gray.[1]
Adults are on wing from July to October in Kentucky and from August to September in southern Ontario.
