Eupselia beltera is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Alfred Jefferis Turner in 1947. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland, [1] New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia.

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are yellow, with the costa to the middle suffused with fuscous and with a fuscous terminal blotch containing long whitish longitudinal striae preceded by two transverse iridescent purple streaks. There is a yellow dot on the costa before the apex, and another minute dot on the dorsum at three-fourths, as well as five blackish dots on the lower half of the termen, of which alternate three are partly edged with brilliant gold. The hindwings are yellow with the margin around the apex fuscous. [2]

The larvae are thought to feed on the foliage of Eucalyptus species. [3]
