The length of the forewings is 5–6 mm. The forewings are blackish, with scattered white and brown scales particularly along the dorsal margin and across the first quarter and middle.[4] Adults have been recorded on wing from late June to late September.
The larvae feed on Lychnis viscaria. They initially feed between spun terminal shoots, but later feed within the stem. Larvae can be found in April and May.
