Eoophyla citrialis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by David John Lawrence Agassiz in 2012.[1] It is found in Tanzania,[2] where it has been recorded from the Eastern Arc Mountains.

The wingspan is 14–16 mm. The forewings are white with an indistinct yellowish median fascia and a yellow terminal area. The base of the hindwings is white.

Etymology

The species name refers to the predominant colour of the species and is derived from Greek kitria (meaning lemon).[3]

gollark: It's an "autonomous commune" in... Seattle or something.

gollark: It's apparently big enough that you would need something like 20 high-end compute GPUs, so... quite a lot of raspberry pis.

gollark: The trouble with this is that scaling it up like this requires ridiculous amounts of computing resources, and now it's so big that individuals probably can't even tractably run it.

gollark: It can add somewhat larger numbers!
