Euphlyctinides aeneola is a species of moth of the family Limacodidae. It is found in northern and western Thailand at altitudes of 400 to 1,400 meters.[1]
The wingspan is 20–22 mm. The head, thorax and abdomen are brown. Both the forewings and hindwings are greyish brown, although the forewing has a darker costal area and a discal cell with dark-brown scales. The dark-brown postmedial fascia of the forewing consists of dispersal streak-like spots on the veins. Adults are on wing from mid-June to August and in October.
Etymology
The species name is derived from Latin aeneolus (meaning "produced from bronze") and refers to the colouration of the species.[1]
