Lichenaula fumata is a moth in the family Xyloryctidae. It was described by Alfred Jefferis Turner in 1898. It is found in Australia,[1] where it has been recorded from Queensland.
The wingspan is 25–28 mm. The forewings are pale fuscous confusedly irrorated with blackish-fuscous, and sometimes also with white scales. There is a blackish-fuscous crescentic mark in the disc at three-fifths. The hindwings are grey-whitish, fuscous tinged towards the hindmargin.
The larvae possibly feed on Grevillea species.[2]
