The wingspan is about 13.5 mm. The forewing pattern is similar to Carodista tribrachia, but with a large yellowish-orange patch near three-fourths and a discal spot in the middle, as well as a large yellowish-orange patch at the end of the cell, speckled with golden yellow scales. There is a short blackish streak below the discal spot.
Etymology
The species name refers to the type location.[2]

gollark: `[1 :: Int]` (Haskell), sort of thing?
gollark: ```zig var arena = std.heap.ArenaAllocator.init(std.heap.page_allocator); defer arena.deinit(); const alloc = &arena.allocator;```oh apio why
gollark: `const zero: T = 0; // I wish I were dead but this singlehandedly fixes the code`
gollark: Thus utilize Rüst, which has good döcs.
