|
Thiotricha microrrhoda is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1935. It is found in Taiwan.[1]
The wingspan is about 11 mm. The forewings are whitish, irregularly sprinkled with grey, the costa narrowly clear white from the base to two-thirds, beneath this a grey subcostal streak becoming dark fuscous from one-third to two-thirds, the disc suffused with grey between this and the fold. There is a small dark grey subdorsal mark at one-fifth and a very oblique dark fuscous streak from above the dorsum at two-fifths to the disc at two-thirds, then longitudinal almost to the termen beneath the apical projection, where it receives dark grey very oblique streaks from the costa and dorsum meeting at a point. There is a dark grey striga from the costa before the apical filament along it to the apex and there are some silvery scales on the terminal concavity. The hindwings are grey.[2]
