Lepidozancla is a genus of moths of the Oecophoridae family. It contains only one species, Lepidozancla zatrephes, which was described by Turner in 1916[1] and is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[2]
The wingspan is 18-22 mm. The forewings are ochreous-grey-whitish with a fuscous discal dot at one-third, and a second considerably before it on the fold, both of which may be obsolete, and a third in the disc beyond the middle. Sometimes, there are a few fuscous scales in a median line before and after the third dot. The hindwings are grey-whitish.[3]
