The wingspan is 19–22 mm. It is very similar to Acrobasis sodalella[1][2] [3] Meyrick describes it Differs from A. sodalellaonly as follows: forewings mixed or sometimes much suffused with dark fuscous, basal area distinctly paler, more mixed with ochreous-whitish, first line less distinct, browner. Larva pale grey, tinged with yellowish or greenish; subdorsal, and lateral lines dark grey; a whitish black-ringed lateral spot on 3; head and plate of 2 yellow-brownish, darker dotted: in a silken gallery amongst spun leaves of oak; 5, 6.[4]

The moth flies in one generation from the end of May to August. The larva feeds on oak.
