Dichomeris latescens is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Walsingham in 1911.[1] It is found in Mexico (Veracruz, Tabasco).[2]
The wingspan is about 8 mm. The forewings are cream-colour, with a slight yellowish tinge. A pale chestnut-brown costal blotch beyond the middle is followed by a series of small chestnut-brown dots around the apex and termen, at the base of the creamy yellowish cilia. A faint chestnut dot lies at the end of the cell. The hindwings are pale greyish cinereous.[3]
