Phragmataecia monika

Phragmataecia monika is a species of moth of the family Cossidae. It is known only from the Qin Liang Feng Shan mountains in Zhejiang province of eastern China.

The wingspan is about 31 mm. The ground color of the forewings is blackish brown, but the median part of the wing (from the base to the inner edge) is yellow brown extending to the j-shaped wing edge. The hindwings are yellow.

The suspected host plants are Phragmites species.
