Hyalospectra pustularia is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1861.[1] It is found on the Indonesian islands of Borneo and Siberut.[2]
Adults are whitish, the wings mostly fawn coloured exteriorly, thinly and irregularly black speckled, with two macular irregular hyaline (glass-like) iridescent bands, of which the second is marginal. There are some blackish patches, which are intersected by three irregular whitish lines and by whitish veins.[3]
