Cerconota dimorpha

Wikipedia Abstract

Cerconota dimorpha is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Duckworth in 1962. It is found in Ecuador. The wingspan is 18-22 mm. The forewings of the males are ocherous to argillaceous shaded with brown, with a large, dorsal area of black scales at the inner angle. The base of the costa is narrowly dark brown with three triangular dark brown costal spots, one at the basal third, one near the middle, and one at the apical fourth. From the apex of the latter extends an ill-defined, slender, lunate line to the tornus and from the outer corner of this costal spot a row of dark brown dots extends from the apex along the termen to the tornus. The costa, except the spots, is edged with ocherous and there is a brown dot at the end of the cell. In females, the forewings are ocher
