Cerconota tabida is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1877. It is found in the Brazilian states of Amazonas and Pará and in the Guianas.[1]
The wingspan is 26–29 mm. The forewings are light brownish ochreous with a slight fuscous-purplish mark on the costa at one-fourth and a broad oblique band more or less suffused brownish, the anterior edge formed by a suffused fuscous-purplish streak from the middle of the costa to one-fourth of the dorsum, the posterior by a triangular or trapezoidal fuscous-purplish blotch occupying the posterior third of the costa, within the band a pale semicircular antemedian dorsal blotch marked posteriorly by two curved suffused dark grey bars. The second discal stigma is grey or purplish, followed by a dot of pale suffusion and there is a light greyish shade running around this dot posteriorly, then continued as a distinct rather oblique grey line from beneath it to the dorsum, where it meets a curved grey line or shade from the costal blotch to the dorsum near the tornus, indented below the middle. There is also a terminal series of grey dots. The hindwings are grey, paler or ochreous whitish anteriorly.[2]
