Stenoma argotoma

Wikipedia Abstract

Stenoma scitiorella is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Walker in 1864. It is found in Panama, Brazil (Amazonas) and Guyana. The wingspan is 12-13 mm. The forewings are glossy violet-grey with the costa more or less broadly suffused with white from the base to the middle and with a rather oblique hardly curved somewhat irregular white line from the middle of the costa to two-thirds of the dorsum, rather suffused anteriorly, edged with dark fuscous posteriorly. The wing beyond this is glossy dark slaty-grey, with the costal edge and a streak around the termen white. There are some marginal dark fuscous dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.
