La "fasciola" o banda clara en diagonal de las alas anteriores es característica de los machos y sería el origen del nombre específico, la hembra no tiene esas bandas en diagonal. Con luz de linterna de LEDs, atraída por la luz del fluorescente que se ve de fondo. Fueron vistas acá por primera vez en diciembre de 2013. Lo leído indica que sus larvas se alimentan de hojarasca de Prosopis, sin embargo en el lugar preciso no hay mucho pero sí Inga que es de la misma Familia.
