Ardozyga emmeles

Ardozyga emmeles is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Turner in 1933. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]

The wingspan is 14–16 mm. The forewings are pale brown partly suffused with darker brown and with dark fuscous costal dots at the base and one-sixth, and on the dorsum at one-sixth preceded by a sub-dorsal dot. There are five oblique fuscous marks on the costa from one-third to the apex, their apices running into a subcostal fuscous suffusion, which is cut by an oblique white line, partly fuscous in the centre from two-fifths of the costa to the middle of the disc. There is a short blackish streak from the apex, separated from the subcostal suffusion by a white dot. There is also an interrupted white terminal line doubly edged with fuscous. The hindwings are grey-whitish.[2]
