The habitat consists of moist forests, riparian, agricultural and urban areas. The wingspan is 30–38 mm. The colour ranges from pale buff-grey to dark red-brown. The forewing pattern is also highly variable, from almost non-patterned to strongly banded forms. Adults are on wing from late March to April in one generation per year.〔(University of Alberta E.H.
