Gonionota persistis

Gonionota persistis is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1914. It is found in Peru.^[1]

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are light yellowish, suffusedly streaked with crimson-red on all veins and with a slender crimson-fuscous streak along the costa throughout, continued around the termen to the tornus, the anterior half of the costa more broadly suffused with light fuscous and with a thick streak of light fuscous suffusion from three-fifths of the costa to one-fourth of the dorsum. The discal stigmata are small and dark fuscous and there is a rather curved waved light fuscous transverse line at three-fourths, as well as a similar crimson-red subterminal line. The hindwings are whitish-yellowish, yellower along the termen.^[2]
