Autosticha latiuncusa is a moth in the Autostichidae family. It was described by Park and Wu in 2003.[1] It is found in China (Sichuan).
The wingspan is 17-18 mm. The forewings are pale greyish-orange, sparsely speckled with dark scales. The costa is gently arched near the basal one-third. The first stigma is found at the middle of the cell, with the plical obliquely before the first and the third at the end of the cell. There are three to four marginal dots on the apical one-fourth and five to six dots along the termen. The hindwings are pale grey.
Etymology
The species name refers to the broad uncus and is derived from Latin latus (meaning broad, wide).[2]
