Meyrick, 1914

Commatica parmulata is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1914. It is found in Guyana and Brazil.[1]

The wingspan is about 11 mm. The forewings are dark violet-fuscous, suffused in the disc with light glossy blue and with an oblique blackish mark beneath the fold at one-fourth. The stigmata are large, elongate and blackish, with the plical obliquely before the first discal, some white irroration above and below the second discal and a very oblique white strigula from the costa before two-thirds, where a very strongly curved fine whitish line runs to the tornus. There is a leaden-grey terminal patch extending to the second discal stigma and cut by this line, marked before the apex by a white spot cut by two black dashes and surrounded by some white irroration. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
