Ephysteris sporobolella

Ephysteris sporobolella is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Bernard Landry in 2010. It is found on the Galápagos Islands.[1]

The length of the forewings is 2.8-3.9 mm. The forewings are greyish brown on the costal half with a paler costa and wider band on the distal half of the costa. Most scales are more or less widely tipped brown and there is a chestnut-brown line at the base, along the fold, and along the midline distally, with a black spot in the fold at one-third and usually also below the midline postmedially, and often along the midline subapically and at the apex, with the area below the costal fold paler than above, with a few brown-tipped scales. The hindwings are greyish brown. Adults have been recorded on wing from January to June and in November.
