Ephysteris subovata is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Povolný in 2001. It is found in Transbaikalia and China (Jilin,[1] Gansu, Hebei, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Tianjin).
The length of the forewings is 5–6 mm. The forewings are covered with grey, brown-tipped scales, and mottled by ochreous scales along the veins. There are small dark spots about one-third near the costal margin, a distinct black spot surrounded by ochreous scales in the cell and two black spots at one-third and two-thirds near the dorsal margin. The hindwings are pale grey. Adults are on wing from June to August in China.[2]
