The forewings are pale yellowish brown, intermixed with white and few pale-grey scales. Darker grey and browrn scales, each tipped with pale yellow form small costal spots, two to three larger, irregularly shaped discal spots, and large submarginal spots. The hindwings are shiny grey. The larvae feed on ''Solanum elaeagnifolium''. They feed on the seeds and flesh of their host plant. ==Etymology== The species name is derived from the generic name of the host plant, ''Solanum'', plus Greek ''phagein'' (meaning to eat).〔(Proc.
