The wingspan is about 19 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is whitish, preserved along the edges of the markings and in the form of an oval white blotch. The rest of the forewing is suffused with pale ferruginous brown. The markings are rust brown. The hindwings are brownish, but pale basally.

Etymology

The specific name refers to the shape of the pale spot on the forewing and is derived from Latin ovulus (meaning small egg).[1]

gollark: Well, this one is secretly an artificial superintelligence running as a distributed computation on various Discord bots and spare capacity in users' brains, and is small.
gollark: Thus, if you get invites from people of group X, they will be invites to servers containing people of group X.
gollark: Consider: people are only going to invite you to servers they're in. Or at least aware of.
gollark: Maybe you could find new ones NOT by asking the people you don't like much?
gollark: You could quite probably find programming servers unassociated with the esolangs-adjacent community.
