Oraesia excavata is a species of moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in Japan, Korea, China, Thailand and Taiwan and has recently been recorded from Hawaii. Adults are orange colored and mimic a dead leaf. They pierce fruit (including prune, citrus, grape, peach, pear, apple, guava, papaya, mango, banana and loquat) to suck the juice. The larvae feed on Menispermaceae species, possibly including Cocculus orbiculatus, Lepisanthes rubiginosa and Stephania japonica.
