Antaeotricha incompleta Meyrick, 1932 | |
Antaeotricha incompleta is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1932. It is found in Mexico.[1]
The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are pale greyish, with the costal edge white and the costal third suffused ochreous-white on the basal two-fifths and a short dark grey dorsal streak near the base. There are two very obliquely placed dark grey dots (including the first discal stigma) in the disc about one-fourth, directed towards the anterior angle of an ill-defined quadrate median dorsal blotch of darker grey suffusion. There are spots of darker grey suffusion on the costa before the middle and at two-thirds, the first connected by one or two dark grey dots (including the second discal stigma) with the anterior angle of a pre-tornal subquadrate blotch of darker grey suffusion, the second sending a very oblique darker grey line rather abruptly curved in the disc to the tornus. There is also a marginal series of dark fuscous dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are pale grey with an expansible subcostal grey-whitish hairpencil from the base reaching beyond the middle.[2]
