The length of the forewings is 3.1-3.7 mm. The forewings are beige, with scales that are darker tinged toward the apical one-third of the wing and the base of the costa. The hindwings are greyish brown.

Etymology

The species name refers to the absence of markings on the forewings.[2]

gollark: There's no actual *data* limit, only bitrate ones! UTTER BEES!
gollark: Anyway, I pay £9 a month for this 8GB of data, which is very bees and irritating.
gollark: I ran mine through the validator and it seems okay.
gollark: It's an entirely artificial restriction since the only real physical limits are on bitrate through the air.
gollark: I mean, yes, but only four movies per month. Depending on resolution.
