The length of the forewings is 5.9 mm. The forewing colour consists of brown and dark-brown scales intermixed with mostly pale brownish-orange scales from the base to the apical end of the discal cell. There is a single brown discal spot near the apical end of the discal cell and the marginal scales are dark brown. The hindwings are pale brown, the area posterior to the cubitus with elongate scales.
Etymology
The species name refers to the pointed apical area of the costa of the valva and is derived from Latin acuminatus (meaning pointed).[2]
gollark: IT STILL IS
gollark: Hmm, you may be right, depends what definition you use.
gollark: Maybe I should publish my entirely useless code with a custom license forbidding people who actively go around describing themselves as not caring about other people from using it.
gollark: Although that's kind of contradictory depending on what you're defining "bad" based on.
gollark: Well, you totally could, and that goes against the ethical frameworks most people agree with.
