The wingspan is about 22 mm for males and 19–20 mm for females. The forewings are light orange with a transverse dark brown, leaden-metallic band from two-fifths of the costa, connected to the costal streak from the base. There is a golden yellow area before and beyond this band, as well as a dark brown, leaden-metallic area before three-fifths.
Etymology
The species name refers to the colour pattern of the forewings and is derived from Latin amabilis (meaning beauty).[2]
gollark: It's not a solution at a population scale because we need "food" and "water" and "electricity" and sometimes "medical treatment".
gollark: I'm sure nothing bad could happen if everyone stayed at home all the time for several weeks.
gollark: Ah yes, of course.
gollark: You can... breathe in virus droplets...
gollark: ... no?
