[4] In 1971 David Edward Gaskin, thinking he was describing a new species, named this moth Pareromene gurri.

[5] Gaskin synonymised this name with G. stella in 1985 when reclassifying Australasian, Melanesian and Polynesian Glaucocharis species.

Fore-wings subtriangular, costa slightly arched, apex rounded, termen faintly bisinuate, somewhat oblique; bluish-slate-grey; extreme costal edge touched whitish from about 1⁄4 to 4⁄5; lines blackish, subbasal marked on costal half, first rather thick on costal half, from costa beyond 1⁄3 outwards-oblique to middle, acutely angled inwards and again on fold right-angled to dorsum beyond middle, mixed ochreous scales except near costa, second fine, waved, from costa beyond 2⁄3 outwards-oblique, strongly excurved on median third and sinuate to dorsum at 2⁄3, thus nearly approximated to first on dorsum, slightly mixed ochreous scales towards dorsum; discal spot oblique-oval, edged blackish and filled ochreous, lying within curve of second line, a small spot of blackish suffusion on costa obliquely before this; an obscure triangular apical patch of blackish-grey subterminal suffusion; an uneven black terminal line; cilia grey, a subbasal shade hardly darker, tips slightly mixed whitish.

[3]Gaskin pointed out that this species is similar in appearance to G. epiphaea but that it can be distinguished by genitalic characteristics in both sexes.

[4][8] As a result of their colouration adult moths are highly protected when resting with closed wings on rocks on the mountain side.
