Psilocorsis indalma Walsingham, 1912 | |
Psilocorsis indalma is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Walsingham in 1912.[1] It is found in Guatemala.[2]
The wingspan is about 29 mm. The forewings are brownish ochreous, sprinkled with fuscous in a somewhat striate transverse form, the whole having a slight vinous suffusion. A fuscous spot lies at the end of the cell, and a smaller one on the cell half-way to the base. There is a slightly curved shade from the lower angle of the cell, extending to the tornus and there are five elongate blackish spots along the termen, with another in the same series at the apex, and another on the costa above it. The hindwings are pale brownish cinereous.[3]
