Antaeotricha serarcha is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Brazil.[1]
The wingspan is about 24 mm. The forewings are white with some grey mottling on the basal fifth of the costa and some indistinct suffused light grey mottling occupying the cell, and faint grey suffusion towards the dorsum beneath this. A spot of dark fuscous irroration is found on the dorsum towards the base edged beneath with ferruginous projecting scales and there are small oblique grey marks on the dorsum at two-fifths and two-thirds, as well as two black dots on the end of the cell, the upper larger, an 8-shaped ring of light grey suffusion surrounding these. Two parallel slightly curved light grey transverse shades are found posteriorly, not reaching the costa and there is a marginal series of grey dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are pale whitish-grey-ochreous.[2]
