Inga roseomarginella is a moth in the Oecophoridae family. It was described by Busck in 1911.[1] It is found in French Guiana.[2]
The wingspan is about 20 mm. The forewings are shining ocherous white with dark brown dusting, and with the entire costa and terminal edge broadly rosy red. The dark brown scales are irregulary sprinkled over the wing with a first and second discal spot basely emphasized. A dark brown line runs from the apical fourth of the costa in an outward curve across the wing to the dorsum. The hindwings are very light lemon yellow.[3]
