Oreta turpis is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1877.[1] It is found in Japan, the Russian Far East (Sakhalin, Ussuri), Korea[2] and China (Shandong).[3]
The wingspan is 30–40 mm.[4] Adults are pale shining brown, the external area sprinkled with black, the forewings are crossed by two parallel greyish lines, which become blackish towards the apex. There is a short apical streak between the outer line and the margin. The hindwings have a pale costal area and the apical area is darker than the rest of the wing.[5]
