Epimactis infulata is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1914. It is found in Sri Lanka.[1]
The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are brownish-grey with the costal edge white, the costa towards the base more broadly suffused with whitish. The stigmata are dark-fuscous, the plical rather obliquely beyond the first discal, the second discal connected with dorsum by a direct dark-fuscous rather irregular streak. There are three blackish linear marks on the posterior part of the costa, and a black line around the apex and termen. The hindwings are light-grey.[2]
