It has a silky head of bright yellow scales, which the moth develops in adulthood, and its head has been described as orange-yellow in colouration, the body is white and the wings are brown or greyish.
Also an important detail - its genitalia is comparatively smaller than that of the Neopalpa neonata, its close relative.
Nazari has therefore named it thusly: Neopalpa donaldtrumpi.
Oh yes, yes he did: the evolutionary biologist named the moth with the white-blonde tresses and small genitalia, after Donald Trump.

I would be concerned that this news would cause the fucking moron to authorize wiping out habitat favored by this poor little moth, but it's safe because he would never read such a story on his own ("sciency" and his handlers will be sure to keep the information away from him.
