Eporycta chionaula

Eporycta chionaula is a moth in the family Xyloryctidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1920. It is found in South Africa (Free State).[1][2]

The wingspan is about 29 mm. The forewings are light ochreous suffusedly mixed with grey, especially on the veins. The markings are shining snow-white. There is a streak along the costa from the base almost to the apex, cut by lines of ground-colour on veins 9-11. A moderate streak is found from the base above the middle to the termen beneath the apex, on the posterior fourth bisected by a line of ground-colour. There are streaks between veins 2-5, the uppermost very slender and short. There are also streaks above and beneath vein 1b, the lower one not extended quite to its apex. The hindwings are light greyish-ochreous.[3]
