The wingspan is about 26 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is creamish with leaden-grey suffusions and a darker costa with brownish-cream costal strigulae (fine streaks). The apex and posterior part of the costa are brownish. The markings consist of a dark purple-brown blotch edged with whitish. The hindwings are brownish.
Etymology
The species name refers to the shape of the dorsal blotch of the forewing.[2]
gollark: Because they're the one who has to keep it connected to their body for 9 months or so.
gollark: I don't think that a child is meaningfully, by any definition which is actually sane or relevant, part of a parent's body, or composed of them, and I don't see why "so both genetic contributors get to decide whether the mother keeps it around" follows.
gollark: If they agree to it, sure.
gollark: It seems like you're (implicitly?) doing that weird motte-and-bailey thing where you go "by some strained technical definition, you are part of your parent's body" and then go "since you're now obviously part of their body, they get authority over you".
gollark: You're arguing a different thing to "it's literally them", then.
