The forewings are white with two transverse brown bands converging at the anal angle forming a V-shaped mark on the basal third, the middle third with indistinct brown shading blending into indistinct brown streaks in the apical third that follow the lines of the veins beyond the cell to the termen and costa. There is a row of five or six indistinct brownish dots along the termen reaching to the apex. The hindwings are light brown. The species was reared from a cynipid gall on a ''Quercus'' species.Proc.

Over 1.5 million Extant taxon, living animal species have been Species description, described—of which around 1 million are Insecta, insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have Ecology, complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology. Most living animal species are in Bilateria, a clade whose members have a Symmetry in biology#Bilate ...
