Theisoa pallidochrella

Theisoa pallidochrella is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Chambers in 1873. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Kentucky and Illinois.

The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are light reddish-grey, minutely dusted with dark purplish fuscous scales. Near base is an inconspicuous, small, dark, bronzy brown, costal dot. At the basal third is a large transverse dark bronzy-brown costal spot, reaching down across the fold. At about the apical third is a smaller concolorous costal spot and the tip of the wing has the dark scales collected into ill-defined transverse spots or streaks. The hindwings are shining, dark fuscous.
