Antaeotricha haesitans ( الإنجليزية )

المقدمة من wikipedia EN

Antaeotricha haesitans is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Lord Walsingham in 1912. It is found in Mexico (Durango) and the United States, where it has been recorded from Texas.[1]

The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are pale fawn-ochreous, with an oblique fawn-brown line from the commencement of the costal cilia, descending straight to the tornus. A minute spot of the same at the end of the cell, another on the cell halfway between this and the base, a third in the middle of the fold. From the plical spot a line of brown scales descends obliquely outward to the dorsum and is diffused along it nearly to the tornus, but not conspicuously. There are a few small brown dots around the apex and termen at the base of the pale fawn cilia. The hindwings are fawn-brownish.[2]

The larvae feed on Pithecellobium flexicaule.
