Epimactis pulsatella is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Bradley in 1961. It is found on Guadalcanal.[1]
The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are white, with the anterior edge of the costa cream-buff and with a small, fuscous discal stigma a little above the middle at one-third, and a similar stigma obliquely below in the plical fold, and a third at the end of the cell at about the middle. A subterminal line of small, fuscous, interneural dots is found around the apex and along the termen. The hindwings are white.[2]
