Antaeotricha graphopterella explained

Antaeotricha graphopterella is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1864. It is found in Amazonas, Brazil.[1]

Adults are a pale cinereous-fawn colour, the forewings of which have three blackish oblique streaks; the first and second streaks zigzag but the first extends from the middle of the base more obliquely than the second and than the third. There is a row of black points along the exterior border and along the adjacent part of the costa. The hindwings are brown with the fringe paler.[2]
