The length of the forewings is 16–16.5 mm. The forewings are lutescent (yellowish), with brown scales and with a distinct black dot at the middle of the cell, the end of the cell and at the middle of the fold. The apical area has dense brown scales and there is a blackish spot at the tornus. The hindwings are pale grey.
Etymology
The species name refers to the black dots of the forewing and is derived from Latin stictus (meaning spotted).[2]

gollark: Also, probably faster, likely neater code, would scale better to doing other things.
gollark: Well, it wouldn't be vulnerable to directory traversal attacks like I think yours is?
gollark: For example, as I said, you could use a relational database instead of some incredibly hacky-seeming file "database".
gollark: Of course, you can write less bad PHP.
