Doina subicula is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by John Frederick Gates Clarke in 1978. It is found in Chile.[1]
The wingspan is 24–25 mm. The forewings are fuscous with the basal angle light ochraceous buff. On the costa, to the apex, is a series of ill-defined light ochraceous-buff dots and in the cell is a blackish dash joined at the end of the cell by a transverse bar of the same colour. Between the cell and the termen is an ill-defined, outwardly curved series of light ochraceous-buff spots and the termen is narrowly edged blackish fuscous. The hindwings are light greyish olive with a darker line around the outer edge.[2]
