The length of the forewings is 12.5–13 mm. The forewings are brown, the costal margin with a whitish yellow spot halfway and at one-sixth. There is a dark brown dot in the middle of the cell, at the end of the cell and at the middle of the fold. The hindwings are grey.

Etymology

The species name refers to the footshaped valva and is derived from Latin peditatus (meaning foot).[2]

gollark: I'm actually considering putting it on my website.
gollark: You can use it for fun stuff like this:
gollark: It's meant to be a Lagrange interpolation implementation, and I think it does *do* that, but the simplification isn't very effective, see, so it just produces these weird obfuscated expressions.
gollark: I had WolframAlpha do that, it seems to be.
gollark: The raw unsimplified output is: `(1 * (((x - 2) / (1 - 2)) * ((x - 3) / (1 - 3)) * ((x - 4) / (1 - 4)))) + (4 * (((x - 1) / (2 - 1)) * ((x - 3) / (2 - 3)) * ((x - 4) / (2 - 4)))) + (9 * (((x - 1) / (3 - 1)) * ((x - 2) / (3 - 2)) * ((x - 4) / (3 - 4)))) + (16 * (((x - 1) / (4 - 1)) * ((x - 2) / (4 - 2)) * ((x - 3) / (4 - 3))))`.
