The length of the forewings is 5–7 mm. The forewings are brown intermixed with pale-brown scales and a few dark-brown scales. The hindwings are translucent pale brown, gradually darkening towards the apex.
Etymology[edit]
The specific name is derived from Latin bi (meaning two) and lob (meaning lobe) together referring to the two apicolateral lobes of the anellus.
