Acria eulectra is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1908.[1] It is found in India (Assam).[2]
The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are ochreous-white, with a suffused fuscous patch along the dorsum from the base to two-third, narrowed posteriorly and interrupted in the middle. There is a round patch in the middle of the disc, irregularly mixed with fuscous and blackish. There is also a line of dark fuscous and blackish scales ending in a small spot before the tornus and some slight brownish suffusion beyond this on the lower half, as well as a series of minute dark fuscous dots on the posterior half of the costa and termen. The hindwings are fuscous, thinly scaled and suffused with dark fuscous posteriorly.[3]
