Wikipedia Abstract

Stomopteryx deverrae is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Walsingham in 1905. It is found in Algeria and Spain. The wingspan is about 13 mm. The forewings are yellow-ochreous at the base, with a narrow line of black scabs along the costa, another on the upper edge of the cell, below which the cell itself is pale whitish ochreous. From a little beyond, the remainder of the wing-surface is thickly suffused and speckled with black, the black scales being concentrated in an elongated spot on the middle of the wing, followed by a smaller one at the end of the cell, with some indication of a third in the fold below the first. The ground-colour underlying the black speckling is pale whitish ochreous, as on the upper half of the cell from the base, and is fairly conspicuous on
