| Dichomeris attenta Meyrick, 1921 | |
Dichomeris attenta is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1921.[1] It is found in Zimbabwe.[2]
The wingspan is about 11 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous suffusedly speckled with grey and with the anterior two-thirds of the costa rather broadly suffused with ochreous-whitish. The costal edge is dark fuscous towards the base and the stigmata is dark fuscous, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal. There is a cloudy additional dot midway between the plical and the base, as well as an acutely angulated obscure ferruginous-brownish transverse line just beyond the second discal and some cloudy marginal dots of ferruginous-brownish irroration around the apex, and some dark fuscous irroration towards the termen beneath the apex. The hindwings are grey.[3]
