Isembola is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae. It contains the species Isembola diasticta, which is found in Ecuador.[1]
The wingspan is about 36 mm. The forewings are whitish-grey-ochreous irregularly irrorated rather dark fuscous, most densely towards the apex. The stigmata are dark fuscous, the plical very obliquely before the first discal, placed in a nearly clear ochreous-whitish streak, an additional elongate dot midway between the plical and the base, and another dot midway between the discal. The hindwings are grey-whitish.[2]
