The wingspan is about 30 mm. Peribatodes ilicaria is difficult to certainly distinguish from its congeners. See Townsend et al.[1]
All are grey brown with a darker cross band and lines variously developed. The moths fly from July to September depending on the location. The larvae feed on various trees and shrubs. References
