The length of the forewings is 11.5–12 mm. The forewings are greyish brown to dark brown, with scattered brown scales. There is an inverted yellowish triangular spot at the distal one-sixth, a broad yellowish fascia from the costal half extending beyond the middle of the dorsum, with two black dots on both sides. The termen is whitish yellow. The hindwings are pale brown.
Etymology
The species name refers to the similarity with Cryptolechia torophanes and is derived from Latin falsus (meaning false).[2]
gollark: It basically looks 12 words in each direction around the link.
gollark: When it finds a wikilink, it uses algorithms™ and the full text of the paragraph to generate a short snippet of context.
gollark: And the page parsing logic iterates over the markdown AST, and uses the accursed wikilink regex to find wikilinks.
gollark: So, pages are now parsed on save, right.
gollark: Safety will tend toward 0 and minoteaur progress will progress inevitably (I just made context work).
