Source-derived summary

Antaeotricha aggravata is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in French Guiana.

The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are rather dark grey with the costal edge suffusedly white except towards the base and with three cloudy darker lines, blackish towards the costa, the first from one-fourth of the costa to the middle of the dorsum, the second from the middle of the costa to four-fifths of the dorsum, somewhat bent in the middle, the third from three-fourths of the costa to the tornus, curved. The apical area beyond this is suffused with white and with eight blackish marginal dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are dark grey.

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Antaeotricha aggravata” as species of insect. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Antaeotricha, aggravata and species.

Editorial reviewA sound reference starting point where classification, measurement and the date of the underlying evidence remain visible. The current 114-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Antaeotricha, aggravata and species providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Antaeotricha aggravata”, the useful work is to connect “species of insect” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Stable identifiers, scientific names and standards terminology offer the best bridge between this overview and specialist evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q22285525. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
