The moth is 18–24 mm for males and 22–27 mm for females. It is one of only few Pterophorinae species which is sexually dimorphic. Males have a dark chocolate brown colour, while females are grey-brown.
The larvae feed on Petasites hybridus. They live inside the stem of their host plant, where pupation also takes place.
