The length of the forewings is 4.7–6.4 mm (0.19–0.25 in). The ground color of the forewings is dark brown; with a distinct white line. The ground color of the hindwings is dark brown, but the costal area is paler. Subspecies aridicola has a darker ground color owing to a reduction of the whitish overscaling, especially on the costal half. Adults are on wing from March to mid-May.[2]
The larvae feed on Phacelia distans. Subspecies aridicola only feeds on Phacelia distans var. australis.

gollark: A node is only going to need to be the root of a document tree somewhere (needs freeing once all operations on it are done), part of a tree owned somewhere else (will be freed when the root is), or something which is going to be appended to a tree soon™.
gollark: Can I just `GC_unref` it when adding it to a tree, or something like that? Does that work for `--gc:orc`?
gollark: I don't think so?
gollark: I don't see why it would, it's a markdown parser.
gollark: One issue is that it needs to *not* free a node if it's just been attached to a tree, but the GC presumably doesn't know about that.
