ID pointers: The moth gets its name from a conspicuous row of black dots that fringe the trailing edge of the coffee brown coloured forewing and the off white hindwing. Dark cross lines run through both upper wings. Females are flightless. A distinctive angular “Kink” in the outer cross-line is characteristic. Beware of confusion between the dark form fuscata and the dark form of Pale Brindled Beauty f.monacharia.
