Ganisa floresiaca is a moth in the family Eupterotidae. It was described by Nässig in 2009.[1] It is found on Flores.

The wingspan is about 46 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is pale greyish-brown, with a postmedian black line parallel to three to four crenulate lines in a semicircular curve to the costa. The hindwings are usually without a discal spot and the pattern is hardly visible.[2] Adults have been recorded on wing from February to April.
