10mm. This is the smallest of the four species, with rather obscure forewing markings, though the specimen is worn. The forewing pale costal band is similar to that of rostrilinea. The male genitalia also illustrate a closer relationship to rostrilinea, with the valves similarly ornamented though slightly narrower. The distal diverticulum of the aedeagus vesica is longer, more slender, the distal cornutus apical rather than subapical, and the more basal one at one third rather than central.
