Cilix tatsienluica is a moth in the family Drepanidae first described by Oberthür in 1916.[1] It is found in China (Sichuan, Hubei, Yunnan, Shansi, Shensi).[2]

Adults can be distinguished from other species in the genus by the absence of a terminal fascia on the forewings, the poorly marked postmedial fascia (except at the apex) and the white fringe.[3]
