[1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California to Washington.

The forewings are brownish fuscous sparsely irrorated with whitish ochreous and with the base and basal fourth of costa whitish ochreous.

The first two discal spots are small and black and there is a conspicuous white or whitish-ochreous discal spot at the end of the cell, surrounded by a blackish-fuscous suffusion.

There is a series of poorly defined blackish-fuscous spots along the costa and around the termen.

[3] The larvae feed on Sphaeralcea munroana, Malacothamnus jonesii and Sidalcea species.
