Antaeotricha filiferella

Antaeotricha filiferella is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Walker in 1864. It is found in Brazil (Amazonas) and Panama.^[1]

The wingspan is about 13 mm. The forewings are dark slaty grey, with a white transverse streak, from a little beyond the middle of the costa, running obliquely outward with a slight curve to the outer third of the dorsum. On the extreme costa the white scales are diffused inward and outward for a short distance, and the streak is a little dilated above the dorsum. There is also a small white spot at the apex running through the cilia. The hindwings and cilia are dark brown, whitened along the costa toward the base.^[2]
