It is found in the mountainous areas of the Palearctic realm The distribution is disjunct extending across the Pyrenees, the Alps, some lower mountains (Vosges, Iceland, British Isles) and then from Norway across the Arctic to northern Russia.

The wingspan is 27–39 mm. The ground colour is pale grey. The basal, central and outer marginal cross lines are suffused with yellow. The hindwings are pale white.See also Prout.[1] The larva is pinkish brown, the body with powerful, protruding brushes.
