Antaeotricha milictis ( Anglèis )

fornì da wikipedia EN

Antaeotricha milictis is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1925. It is found in Colombia and Brazil.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are white with a pale ochreous line on the basal fifth of the costa and then just beneath the costa to beyond the middle, two short oblique greyish-ochreous projections from this towards the base. The dorsal area below the fold is suffused pale greyish-ochreous, with a triangular dark fuscous spot at three-fourths and cloudy greyish-ochreous or fuscous dots on the fold just before the middle and midway between this and the base, one above and between these, one in the disc at three-fourths, and one obliquely before and above this. Several cloudy pale brownish-ochreous dots indicate a partial subterminal and pre-marginal series in the disc. The hindwings are ochreous-grey-whitish, the apex narrowly white and with the costa dilated on the anterior half, with a large broad projecting fringe of dense white and dark grey scales and an ochreous-whitish subcostal hairpencil from the base lying beneath the forewings.[2]
