Auratonota aurochra is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae which is endemic to Ecuador.

The wingspan is about 22 millimetres (0.87 in). The ground colour of the forewings is cream, strongly suffused with golden yellow between the markings. These markings are black with ochreous parts. The hindwings are whitish, tinged with brownish in the terminal part.

Etymology

The species name refers to the colour of the markings and is derived from Latin aureus (meaning golden, ochreous).[1]

gollark: See, I would generally horribly overbuild some sort of excessively general solution which nevertheless randomly breaks and isn't very good.

gollark: I sort of do too. My programs generally have basically no sensible error or weird input handling.

gollark: As this uses globals it is of course evil, but OH WELL.
