Biology:Anapatris
Anapatris is a monotypic moth genus in the family Depressariidae. Its only species, Anapatris chersopsamma, is found in Panama. Both the genus and species were described by Edward Meyrick in 1932.[1]
According to the original description by Edward Meyrick, Anapatris chersopsamma has a wingspan of 17-20 mm. The head, palpi, and thorax are light brownish-ochreous. The forewings are elongated with a gently arched leading edge (costa) and a blunt (obtuse) apex. Their color is light brownish-ochreous, irregularly sprinkled with dark brown (fuscous) scales, featuring a small blackish dot at the base of the costa and another in the middle of the cell. The hindwings are pale whitish-grey, with a faint yellowish or ochreous tint toward the tips.[2]
