Lichenaula lithina Meyrick, 1890
|
Lichenaula lithina is a moth in the Xyloryctidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1890. It is found in Australia,[1] where it has been recorded from New South Wales.
The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are white, thinly and irregularly irrorated with black and with a pale fuscous suffusion, forming a very indistinct blotch on the anterior half of the inner margin. There is a spot on the inner margin before the anal angle, a spot on the costa beyond the middle and another at four-fifths, all very faint and obscure. The hindwings are whitish, with a bluish tinge, the veins and hind margin obscurely grey.[2]
