Description

In his 2008 description of Eugoa simonae, which has since been synonymized with Eugoa hainanensis, [2] [1] Karol Bucsek noted the forewings as pale grey in ground color with faint brown mottling, marked with dark brown bands, a dark brown spot on the wing's leading edge near the base, and two black dots in the discal area. [4] He described the hindwings as pale yellow with brown mottling, more so in female specimens than male, the antennae as pectinate in males and filiform in females, and gave a wingspan of respectively 18 and 19 mm for male and female specimens.
