Stenoma caenochytis

Wikipedia Abstract

Antaeotricha caenochytis is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Guyana and Brazil. The wingspan is 16-17 mm for males and 18-20 mm for females. The forewings are shining white, in males with a deep groove beneath the costa from the base to the middle, containing a fringe of white hairs finely attenuated from base to three-fifths. There is a small dark fuscous mark on the base of the costa and a fuscous spot on the base of the dorsum followed by indistinct fuscous irroration on the dorsal half to one-fourth, in females sometimes forming a fuscous blotch. There are three dark fuscous transverse lines, the first from one-fifth of the costa (in males obsolete above groove) to the dorsum at two-fifths, irregular, somewhat curved, followed by a suffused quadrate dark fuscous dors
