Description

Upperside: antennae pectinated. Head, thorax, abdomen, and wings pale reddish brown or fawn coloured. The latter with several indented and waved lines, some being darker and some lighter than the general colour of the wings. On the anterior is a large chocolate patch, situated on the middle of the wings, and joining to the anterior edge; between which and the shoulders is another that is much smaller.

Underside: tongue obsolete. Palpi, breast, abdomen, and wings brown, as on the upperside; the latter immaculate, except a dark patch on each wing near the shoulders. Margins of the wings slightly dentated.

Wingspan 3 inches (75 mm).[1]

gollark: If you have physical access to *my* things you can't read any data off, although an "evil maid attack" where you swap out the unencrypted boot stuff for versions which log the password is possible.
gollark: Phones and maybe recent MacOS devices have full-disk encryption, so not really.
gollark: (Yes, this is from a wikihow article, but the steps it suggests do not work for this case probably)
