Agrioceros subnota is a moth in the Ethmiidae family. It was described by Diakonoff in 1966.[1] It is found on Java.[2]
The wingspan is 27-28 mm. The forewings are deep orange-yellow with dull black markings. There is a streak along the base of the costa and the basal dots are inequal. The discal spot is large and the posterior spot well-defined. The pre-tornal spot is large and round and there is a large black dot in the apex, a streak along upper half of termen and a minute line halfway between these markings in males, connected with the terminal streak in females. The hindwings are pale golden-yellow, becoming deeper yellow towards the apex. In females, the middle of the wing is suffused with pale fuscous.[3]
