Anthozela hilaris is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in Taiwan, Borneo [1] and in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.

The wingspan is about 13 mm. The basal half of the forewings is yellow, irrorated (sprinkled) with blackish and with a dark-fuscous line. Beyond this, the ground colour is dull purple, with dark-fuscous markings edged with red, except for four yellowish costal dots. The hindwings are dark fuscous, partly suffused with pale reddish.
