Barantola panarista is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Turner in 1917. It is found in Australia , where it has been recorded from Queensland[1] and New South Wales.[2]
The wingspan is about 25 mm. The forewings are shining snow-white with a costal streak from the base to the apex, orange-ochreous, but crimson near the base, and shortly crimson-tinged at four-fifths. There is a dark-fuscous line limiting costal streak from one-fifth to four-fifths and a transverse bar from one-fourth of the costal streak, crimson-ochreous coarsely outlined with dark-fuscous, nearly reaching one-fourth of the dorsum, and connected with it by a crimson-ochreous dot containing some fuscous scales. A similar much shorter bar is found from beyond the middle, not reaching the middle of the disc and there is a dark-fuscous line edged with crimson around the apex and termen. The hindwings are white with a small grey suffusion at the apex.[3]
