Revonda eschara is a moth in the Oecophoridae family and only species in the Revonda genus. It was described by Clarke in 1978. It is found in Chile.[1]
The wingspan is 17–21 mm. The forewings are ocherous white, on the costa with three blackish fuscous spots, one at the base, one at the middle and one slightly before the apex. The dorsal two-thirds of the wing are lightly shaded greyish and there is a longitudinal shade from the end of the cell, somewhat darker than the greyish dorsal shade. On the fold, at two-fifths, a loose aggregarion of fuscous scales forms an ill-defined longitudinal dash and there is a fuscous spot at the end of the cell. Scattered over the surface are irregularly placed fuscous scales. The hindwings are grey.[2]
