Protolychnis Maculata
''Protolychnis maculata'' is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Walsingham in 1881. It is found in the Democratic Republic of Congo (Orientale), Namibia, South Africa, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about 13 mm. The forewings are fuscous, slightly shining, and with a purplish tinge. There is a small faint ochreous discal spot on the outer edge of the basal third and a larger roundish faint ochreous spot at the end of the cell, and another less conspicuous spot of the same colour (sometimes scarcely visible) on the costal margin above and beyond it, from which an outwardly angulated line of very faint ochreous scales crosses the wing to the dorsal margin. The hindwings are fuscous, slightly paler t ...

Moth
Moths are a paraphyletic group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not butterflies, with moths making up the vast majority of the order. There are thought to be approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described. Most species of moth are nocturnal, but there are also crepuscular and diurnal species. Differences between butterflies and moths While the butterflies form a monophyletic group, the moths, comprising the rest of the Lepidoptera, do not. Many attempts have been made to group the superfamilies of the Lepidoptera into natural groups, most of which fail because one of the two groups is not monophyletic: Microlepidoptera and Macrolepidoptera, Heterocera and Rhopalocera, Jugatae and Frenatae, Monotrysia and Ditrysia.Scoble, MJ 1995. The Lepidoptera: Form, function and diversity. Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press; 404 p. Although the rules for distinguishing moths from butterflies are not well establishe ...

Lecithoceridae
The Lecithoceridae, or long-horned moths, are a family of small moths described by Simon Le Marchand in 1947. Although lecithocerids are found throughout the world, the great majority are found in the Indomalayan realm and the southern part of the Palaearctic realm. Systematics The Lecithoceridae belong to the superfamily Gelechioidea, and comprises over 100 genera and nearly 900 species. The family is divided into these subfamilies: * Lecithocerinae * Torodorinae Gozmány in Amsel et al., 1978 * Ceuthomadarinae Gozmány, 1978 Park (2015) recently proposed another subfamily Crocanthinae, mainly based on ''Crocanthes'' Meyrick. The new subfamily include ''Crocanthes'' Meyrick, ''Aprosesta'' Turner, ''st. rev.'' (which is resurrected as a valid genus), ''Lamprista'' Park, ''Pacificulla'' Park, ''Hannara'' Park, and ''Gonaepa'' Walker.

Protolychnis Chlorotoma
''Protolychnis chlorotoma'' is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1914. It is found in Malawi. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about 12 mm. The forewings are dark purple-fuscous with a direct transverse whitish-ochreous streak just before the middle, slightly angulated inwards towards the costa. There is a fine series of scattered whitish-ochreous scales from a dot on the costa at four-fifths to the dorsum before the tornus, angulated outwards in the middle. The hindwings are dark grey, lighter in the disc anteriorly. References Moths described in 1914 Protolychnis {{Lecithocerinae-stub ...

Protolychnis Marginata
''Protolychnis marginata'' is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Thomas de Grey in 1891. It is found in Gambia, Sudan and South Africa. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about 14 mm. The forewings are tawny fuscous, narrowly pale ochreous along the costa to a little beyond the middle. This pale ochreous costal streak is wider at the base, tapering outwards, and there is a fuscous shade on the extreme costal margin at the base. On the dark portion of the wing are two small obscure dark tawny brown spots, one at the upper edge of the cell before the middle, another just beyond the middle at the end of the cell, and equidistant from the costal and dorsal margins. The hindwings are grey.

Protolychnis Trigonias
''Protolychnis trigonias'' is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about . The forewings are dark purplish bronzy fuscous, the dorsum marked with obscure whitish-ochreous strigulae. There is a narrow obscure straight antemedian fascia of whitish-ochreous suffusion and there is a small whitish-ochreous discal spot at two-thirds, as well as a small triangular whitish-ochreous costal spot before three-fourths. The hindwings are pale whitish ochreous, irrorated (sprinkled) with light fuscous except towards the base. References Moths described in 1904 Protolychnis {{Lecithocerinae-stub ...
