Cyclotorna egena is a moth of the family Cyclotornidae. It is found in Australia, including New South Wales and Queensland.
female 12-13 mm. Head whitish. Antennæ, thorax, and abdomen fuscous. Legs pale fuscous; posterior pair ochreous-whitish. Forewings elongate-oval, costa rather strongly arched, apex rounded, termen obliquely rounded, dorsum strongly arched before middle; a hyaline fovea on underside beneath costal vein at 1/4; fuscous, with fine whitish irroration; a suffusedly darker roundish spot above dorsum beyond middle, and a second in middisc at 2/3; cilia grey, with some whitish irroration. Hindwings with vein 4 absent; grey; cilia grey. N.Q.: Townsville, in October and December; two specimens, of which one is in Coll. Lyell, received from Mr. F. P. Dodd.
First instar larvae parasitise Psyllidae species. In some species early ecdyses occur in silk shelters spun on the body of the leafhopper host. It is probable that the life history is similar to that of Cyclotorna monocentra .
