The length of the forewings is 4–5 millimetres (0.16–0.20 in). As the species name suggests, it is similar to Epermenia fuscomaculata, but the forewings are a little darker, especially on the apical area. The fasciae are reddish brown.

Etymology

The specific name refers to the similarity to Epermenia fuscomaculata.

gollark: I was talking to skycrafter.
gollark: Although I'm not sure if I should be recommending yet another vaguely EEEish thing Github has.
gollark: You could use GitHub Pages and a madefor.cc subdomain.
gollark: > Clearly the best strategy is to write not one, but two documentation generators just so you can actually write docs.Great, I'll implement a documentation generator entirely in Lua patterns which just reads the code comments?
gollark: The PotatOS API docs just give a very rough type signature and description.
