The length of the forewings is 6.9–8.1 millimetres (0.27–0.32 in). The forewings are yellow orange.[2]

Larvae have been reared from several Pinaceae species, including Pinus resinosa, Pinus rigida, Pinus strobus, Picea abies, Picea glauca and Larix species.

Etymology

The species is named for the uniform yellowish-orange colour of the forewings.
