The wingspan is 37–39 mm. The forewings are pale whitish grey to cinerous grey. The subbasal line is represented by blackish hues at the base of the subcosta, cell and vein 1. The antemedian line is obscure, whitish and edged with a diffuse black shade in males. The median area between the antemedian and postmedian lines is irrorated (sprinkled) with dark grey except for a whitish grey waved shade below the reniform. There is an interrupted and serrate (saw-tooth-like) black line before the orbicular, which has the form of a small black dot. The reniform is black and the postmedian line is obsolete and diffuse. The hindwings are pale whitish grey, with a broad and whitish outer band.[3]

gollark: You should have a 100-byte limit and not test it.
gollark: `print("BEES"*(2**61-1))` is obviously best (ensure access to sufficiently powerful computer).
gollark: I think I should inevitably win, actually?
gollark: `print("BEES"*(2**61-1))` is theoretically optimal ignoring RAM.
