It is found in northern and western Europe and north Africa. It is common in Britain, but local and confined to the north in Ireland. The species is quite variable, the forewings being buff or brown, but is always easily identified by the bold whitish apical streak which gives it its common name. The hindwings are pale grey or buff. The wingspan is {{convert|35|-|38|mm}}. The moth flies, usually at dusk, in September and October {{ref|flight_season}} and is sometimes attracted to light. The larva usually feeds on broom but has been recorded on yellow bush lupin. The species overwinters as an egg. {{clr|left}}
