Bursadella grammatistis is a moth in the family Immidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1906. It is found on New Guinea.[1]
The wingspan is about 33 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous with ochreous-white markings. There is a streak beneath the costa from the base to two-fifths and a fine dorsal streak from near the base to near the tornus. All veins are marked by strong streaks, not quite reaching the margin, posteriorly terminating in a curved submarginal streak which is broadest opposite the apex. A violet-metallic line is found along the termen. The hindwings are dark fuscous, lighter towards the base. There is also a suffused whitish streak along the upper half of the termen.[2]
