01Narrative

Anoncia leucoritis is a moth in the family Cosmopterigidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1927. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from south-eastern Washington south to California and from there east to Arizona and Texas.Anoncia at funetmothphotographersgroup Adults have been recorded on wing in April and August. The larvae feed on Mentzelia laevicaulis.

05DNA & barcoding2 specimens

A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Anoncia leucoritis has left across the world's sequence archives.

Where the DNA of Anoncia leucoritis was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
