The wingspan is 12–13 mm. The base of the forewings is fuscous, mixed with ochreous. The subbasal fascia is white, suffused with ochreous towards the edge and the antemedian fascia is brown, edged with whitish. The median area is scaled with dark brown. The base of the hindwings is fuscous and the subbasal fascia is white. The antemedian fascia is fuscous.
Etymology
The species name refers to Tari, the type locality.[2]
gollark: If they didn't need that (I think the only practical way to achieve this would just be to stick one larger and more efficient converter somewhere) the bulbs would be individually cheaper and probably more efficient too, as well as safer.
gollark: You know something mildly interesting and relevant? LEDs run off lowish-voltage DC. The mains, as connected to most conventional lightbulb fittings (designed for incandescent/flourescent) provides high-voltage AC. This means that every LED lightbulb needs inefficient and probably somewhat expensive power supply circuitry.
gollark: Hmm. Well.
gollark: That seems kind of inefficient.
gollark: What are the three parts then?
