|
Dichomeris stratigera is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1922.[1] It is found in Brazil (Amazonas).[2]
The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are pale purplish-lilac with a streak of ochreous-yellow suffusion beneath the costa from the base to near the middle and a dark fuscous streak occupying the dorsal two-fifths of the wing throughout, its upper portion marked with a thick deep ferruginous streak from the base to the middle, where it forms a short triangular prominence upwards. The second discal stigma is ferruginous and there is a faint pale curved subterminal line edged ferruginous posteriorly. The hindwings are dark grey.[3]
