Distribution. Iraq, Syria ( Razowski 1970b), Iran.

Remarks. Wingspan of examined specimens 21–26 mm. There is some phenotypic variation in this species: the ground colour of the forewing varies from cream and yellowish cream (with some rust-coloured spots) to greyish cream; the hindwing is paler in some specimens, even within the same population. Variation in the majority of the male genitalia is in the length and breadth of the median part of the transtilla ( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6 a). In the majority of specimens it is shorter than the juxta; some of the individuals have a broader and slightly shorter juxta. In the vesica of the examined males, there is a sclerotized semicircular plate with a lateral notch and a tiny spine-like process ( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6 b), which are not distinct in some specimens. This species is newly recorded from Iran.
