Exoditis subfurcata is a moth in the Xyloryctidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1933. It is found in Madagascar.[1][2]
The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous, in males with a fringe of dense downwards-directed scales from beneath the costal edge from the base to two-fifths. The second discal stigma is small, cloudy and fuscous and there is a very faint obtusely angulated line of a brownish tinge at about five-sixths, as well as a series of cloudy fuscous dots just before the termen. The hindwings are light grey.[3]
