}} Zaphanaula hemileuca is a moth in the Xyloryctidae family, and the only species in the genus Zaphanaula. It was described by Turner in 1896. It is found in Australia,[1] where it has been recorded from Queensland. The wingspan is 15–20 mm. The forewings are snow-white with a broad fuscous streak from the base along the costa to one-third, which then proceeds a fuscous fascia, slightly outwardly oblique, to the inner margin before the middle, its anterior edge sharply defined, the posterior edge suffused. There is a darker dot on the fold on the posterior edge of this fascia and a broad fuscous fascia from the costa near the apex, narrowing abruptly to a point at the anal angle. Between the two fasciae are some obscure fuscous markings in the costal portion of the disc and there is a fuscous spot on the hindmargin below the middle. The hindwings are grey, with the basal half whitish-ochreous. The larvae feed on Acacia aulacocarpa.[2] References1. ^funet.fi {{Taxonbar|from=Q13638077}}{{Xyloryctidae-stub}}2. ^Xyloryctine Moths of Australia 4 : Xyloryctidae|Monotypic moth genera|Xyloryctidae genera|Taxa named by Edward Meyrick |
