About Anacampsis conclusella (Walker, 1864)

Anacampsis conclusella is a moth species that belongs to the Gelechiidae family. It was first described by Francis Walker in 1864. This moth is found in North America, and has been specifically recorded in the US states of Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, and the Canadian province of Alberta. Adults of this species have a wingspan of 9 millimeters. Their bodies are dark ash gray, also called dark cinereous. The forewings are very finely speckled with black, and feature a pale ash gray (pale cinereous) transverse line located two-thirds of the way along the wing length, which forms two angles. There are three black marks along the forewing's costal edge: the first and second are small and elongated, while the third is much larger, extending into the disc of the wing. A submarginal line made up of elongated black points runs along the wing, and a few additional small elongated black points are present in the wing disc. The exterior border of the forewing is slightly convex and moderately oblique.
