Wikipedia Abstract

Voliba psammoessa is a moth in the Crambidae family. It was described by Turner in 1908. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland. The wingspan is 12-13 mm. The forewings are whitish, finely irrorated with ochreous-fuscous and with dark-fuscous markings.

The hindwings are whitish, with a pale-fuscous suffusion towards the apex, containing an obscure fuscous line. There is also a short dark-fuscous streak from the tor
