Netechma brunneochra

The wingspan is 24–25 millimetres (0.94–0.98 in). The ground colour of the forewings is cream white dotted with dark brown, especially along the wing edges. The hindwings are cream, slightly mixed with pale ochreous in the apical third.

Etymology

The species name refers to the forewing markings and is derived from Latin brunneus (meaning brown) and Greek chra (meaning touched).[3]
