The wingspan is about 19.5 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is brownish cream, with pale brownish suffusions and slightly darker spots and strigulae. The markings are reduced to pale brown remnants. The hindwings are dirty cream, tinged with brownish on the periphery.
Etymology
The generic name is an anagram of the name of the type-species. The specific name refers to the presence of a strongly developed pulvinus.[2]

gollark: Oh, and a boost to the winter coat industry.
gollark: There are no* downsides.
gollark: Plus, more energy-efficient ice skating?
gollark: *And* my computer would be more efficiently cooled!
