undiscerned
Escaped all detection
Undiscerned means not noticed, perceived, or recognized.
Something undiscerned escapes detection or remains hidden from awareness: The error went undiscerned for months.
The word suggests a failure of observation rather than concealment—the thing was there to be seen but wasn't.
