Antaeotricha reciprocella is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Walker in 1864. It is found in Brazil (Para) and the Guianas.[1]
Adults are shining white, the forewings for nearly one-fourth of the surface from the base blackish, this hue more extended along the interior border than along the costa. There are some indications of two transverse cinereous lines and there is a black point in the exterior disk, nearly contiguous to a cinereous patch which rests on the interior angle. The hindwings are aeneous-cinereous.[2]
