The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings pale ochreous-fuscous, mixed with whitish. There is a fine white subterminal line. The hindwings are white with a narrow median and broad postmedian fuscous fascia, as well as an ochreous-fuscous terminal fascia edged anteriorly with fuscous.
Etymology
The species name is derived from epimochlos (meaning marked with a bar).[3]
gollark: As much as I mostly dislike golang, I think they got it right.
gollark: What if you want to use fallthrough in a *bit* of a mostly non-fallthrough switch/case?
gollark: (also, how would you specify fallthrough if you wanted that?)
gollark: Well, you could possibly, but it would likely be awful and not type safe.
gollark: The issue isn't the extra typing, it's that it's easy to forget and introduce weirdness (and also the extra line is ugly).
