Bit unhappy about T. hemisema. The gold colour is missing, the dark forewing tornal markings shape wrongly, the dark margin and red fringe are missing, and there seems to be an arc of dark dots along the post-medial part of the costa ?

My thinking was that it's a worn specimen with washed out colour, and it's the right shape with the pattern elements that are affected by by wear and tear. But I might be thinking of a different Tachystola, will look further.

It's not Tachystola hemisema nor an unnamed Tachystola sp. There have been a number of small narrow-winged Gelechioidea records recently that I'm going to assemble as "Unidentified moths group 1" to compare them easily
