This is a small to medium (wingspan 33-39 mm) species with cryptically coloured forewings, varying from light to dark brown, sometimes with a reddish tinge. The most characteristic feature is a distinctively "W"-shaped white subterminal line. This feature is seen on some other noctuids but usually much larger species.

This species flies at night and is attracted to light as well as to sugar and nectar-rich flowers. The wingspan (or just span) of an airplane is the distance from the left wingtip to the right wingtip. ...
