Cilix patula is a moth in the Drepanidae family.[1] It is found in China (Yunnan).[2]

The length of the forewings is 10-12.5 mm for males and 11-12.5 mm for females. Adults are similar to Cilix danieli (from which it can only be distinguished by comparing the male genitalia) and Cilix filipjevi, from which it can be distinguished by the broader medial marking of the forewings.[3]
