Sabatinca perveta is an extinct species of moth belonging to the family Micropterigidae. It is known only from the single type specimen, which has been found in Burmese amber in present-day Myanmar. It is assumed to be of Cretaceous origin, embedded in Miocenic clay and is therefore dated between 112.2 and 98.9 mya.[1]
