Pilostibes embroneta is a moth in the family Xyloryctidae. It was described by Alfred Jefferis Turner in 1902. It is found in Australia,[1] where it has been recorded from Queensland.
The wingspan is 30–46 mm. The forewings are pale brown, with a very few scattered dark fuscous scales and a broad streak from the base of the costa to beyond the middle of the disc, toothed above at one-third and beneath at two-thirds, white, edged with dark fuscous, the apical third narrow and wholly dark fuscous. The hindwings are whitish, slightly brownish-tinged.
The larvae feed on Callistemon species. They bore in the stem of their host plant.[2]
