Callidrepana ovata is a moth in the Drepanidae family.[1] It is found in China (Shaanxi, Hubei, Sichuan).[2]
The length of the forewings is 15.5-19 mm for males and 17.5-22 mm for females. Adults are similar to the pale form of Callidrepana patrana palleolus, but usually paler. There are scattered brilliantly lustrous scales along the veins proximal to the postmedial fascia, along the distal edge of the postmedial fascia and in a streak in the basal half of the costal area.[3]
