Its wingspan is about 34 mm. In male, antennae possess serrations and the fascicles of cilia longer than female. Color ochreous grey with more irrarated fuscous.

Female more irrorated with fuscous color, often prominently so, and with diffused prominent lines.[3]

gollark: I don't use that and so can't really say specifically, but for general code editing use Visual Studio Code is good.

gollark: It seems to be bright grayish blue here, no idea about temperature.

gollark: For some weird reason, at school we only did Cambridge Latin Course for one year and then Latin to GCSE, by John Taylor and some other person.

gollark: Maybe they shut it down to save server resources.
