Udea binoculalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by George Hampson in 1904. It is found on the Bahamas. [1]
The wingspan is about 22 mm (0.87 in). The forewings are pale grey brown, thickly irrorated (sprinkled) with fuscous, the costal and terminal areas rather darker. There are traces of a waved subbasal line and an indistinct, oblique, waved antemedial line, as well as a small fuscous ocellus in the middle of the cell and a reniform discoidal spot. The postmedial line is slightly angled inwards at the discal fold, at vein 2 retracted to the lower angle of the cell, then excurved again. There is a terminal series of fuscous points. The hindwings are semi hyaline white, the apical area tinged with brown. There is a discoidal stigma and a fine postmedial line angled inwards at the discal fold and obsolete on the inner half. There is also a terminal punctiform line. [2]
