Ardozyga trichalina

Ardozyga trichalina is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Western Australia.[1]

The wingspan is 17–18 mm. The forewings are white, with a few scattered grey or dark fuscous scales and a narrow curved subbasal dark fuscous fascia, interrupted below the middle. There are dark fuscous dots on the costa at one-fifth and before and beyond the middle, and on the dorsum at one-fourth, a dark fuscous transverse discal spot at two-fifths, and a smaller and narrower one at two-thirds, representing the stigmata, the anterior connected with an elongate fuscous suffusion along the dorsum. There is a moderate somewhat sinuate dark fuscous fascia at three-fourths and an irregular dark fuscous apical blotch, enclosing some whitish terminal dots. The hindwings are grey, paler basally.[2]
