Lichenaula selenophora

Lichenaula selenophora is a moth in the family Xyloryctidae. It was described by Lower in 1892. It is found in Australia,[1] where it has been recorded from New South Wales and Queensland.

The wingspan is 25–28 mm. The forewings are ashy-grey whitish, irrorated with black, the coalescence of which tends to form obscure markings, leaving the costal edge snow-white, from near the base to near the apex. There is an irregular suffusion in the disc and a streak from the base angulated downwards towards the inner margin, but not touching it, at one-fifth then obscurely continued along the fold to beyond the middle. There is a moderate irregular suffused circle, the anterior edge more pronounced immediately above the anal angle, the enclosed space almost white. A whitish apical patch is obscurely continued along the hindmargin to the anal angle and there is a suffused blackish hind marginal line. The hindwings are grey-whitish, slightly ochreous-tinged, much lighter towards the base.[2]
