The wingspan is 17–18 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is silvery white, sprinkled and strigulated (finely streaked) with blackish grey. The markings are black, but grey black inside. The hindwings are white without strigulation and tinged pale brownish in the distal third.

Etymology

The species name refers to the colouration of the forewings and is derived from Latin argentum (meaning silver) and chroa (meaning complexion).[2]

gollark: Unfortunate.
gollark: Get as many TPU VMs as possible and install distributed filesystem software on them.
gollark: You can always just put your data in /tmp and hope nobody ever reboots it.
gollark: Apparently attempting to train this rapidly produces NaNs (even if I set the learning rate to 0 (yes, I know this won't actually train it, it was a test)). I may abandon this until it is the future and tooling/hardware is better.
gollark: My thing is now training on Colab, if somewhat slowly because FP16 refuses to work for no apparent reason.
