Thiotricha panglycera Turner, 1919 | |
Thiotricha panglycera is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Turner in 1919. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]
The wingspan is 10-12 mm. The forewings are shining white with the apical two-fifths grey, the line of junction suffused. There is a broad orange subcostal streak from two-thirds to near the apex and a white dot between this and the costa at five-sixths. There is also an oblique white streak from the tornus to the centre of the orange mark, nearly confluent with a shorter white streak from the termen. A blackish dot separates this last from a white streak along the termen to the apex and there is a subapical blackish dot. The hindwings are pale-grey with the apical process ochreous-tinged with a blackish dot at the apex.[2]
