Dichomeris praealbescens is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1922. [1] It is found in Shanghai, China. [2]
The wingspan is 13–14 mm (0.51–0.55 in). The forewings are whitish, closely irregularly speckled with rather dark fuscous and with a cloudy spot of dark fuscous suffusion about the fold at one-fourth. The stigmata are represented by similar spots, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal, these rather elongate, the second discal rather transverse. There is a triangular spot of dark fuscous suffusion on the costa towards the apex, edged anteriorly by a white strigula and posteriorly by a white apical spot, and with suffused white subterminal and terminal shades from these crossing the wing. The apical and terminal edge are finely dark fuscous. The hindwings are light grey. [3]
