Antaeotricha tempestiva is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in French Guiana.[1]
The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are yellow-ochreous suffused with light brownish, becoming browner towards the base. The costal edge is whitish-ochreous, edged beneath with fuscous. The stigmata are dark fuscous, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal and there are two indistinct lilac-brownish lines sprinkled with dark fuscous, the first rather irregular, from the middle of the costa behind the cell to three-fourths of the dorsum, the second from a cloudy spot on the costa at four-fifths to the dorsum before the tornus, curved. There is also a marginal series of blackish dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are whitish-ochreous.[2]
