Notodryas aeria is a moth in the family Epermeniidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1897. [1] It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania and Victoria. [2]

The wingspan is 9–12 mm. The forewings are white with light ochreous-yellowish markings, more or less irrorated (sprinkled) with black, more strongly towards the dorsum. There is a small spot near the base in the middle and an oblique bar from the dorsum before the middle, reaching two-thirds of the way across the wing. There is an oblique fascia from three-fourths of the costa to the tornus, more or less interrupted or indistinct. There is also a small apical spot. The hindwings are whitish, sometimes greyer posteriorly. [3]

The larvae feed on the leaves of Eucalyptus species, tying leaves with silk.
