Odites ricinella is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Henry Tibbats Stainton in 1859. It is found in India.[1]
The forewings gradually increase in breadth to beyond the middle, then become slightly narrower, the hind margin truncate, ochreous, with numerous small brown spots, and a larger darker spot on the disc before the middle. Towards the apex is frequently a curved row of brown dots. The hind margin is spotted with brown. The hindwings are whitish, with a few brown dots on the apical margin.
The larvae feed on Ricinus communis, rolling up the edge of a leaf. They are bright green with a black head.[2]
