A very acutely dentate suffused white line is found from the middle of the costa very obliquely outwards, curved in the disc and below the middle represented by lines on the veins, towards the costa preceded by dark fuscous irroration or suffusion. The dorsal edge and veins on the dorsal area are finely white, with some whitish tinge or suffusion between these. There is a slightly curved white line from the costa at four-fifths to the tornus, indented towards the costa. Some slight dark fuscous irroration is found above the apex between the veins. The hindwings are white posteriorly suffused light grey with the costa expanded anteriorly, with a strong projecting fringe to beyond the middle of dense whitish-grey hairscales becoming white at the tips, with a long expansible ochreous-whitish subcostal hair-pencil from the base to two-thirds.Description of Antaeotricha mentigera in Exotic Microlepidoptera 3 (5-7): 236
