Odites apicalis Diakonoff, [1968] | |
Odites apicalis is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Alexey Diakonoff in 1968. It is found in the Philippines (Luzon). [1]
The wingspan is about 15 mm. The coloring and markings are very similar to those of Odites perissa . However, in perissa, veins 7 and 8 on the forewings are as long as their stalk and vein 8 terminates distinctly in the costa before the apex. In apicalis, veins 7 and 8 are longer than their stalk, while vein 8 terminates in the costa just above the apex of the wing. [2]
