Frisilia sulcata is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1910. It is found in India (Assam) and Nepal.[1]

The wingspan is 18-20 mm. The forewings are deep yellow-ochreous, sprinkled with dark fuscous specks, in females brownish-tinged. The costal edge is dark fuscous towards the base. The discal stigmata are dot-like, black and conspicuous and there is a slender streak of dark fuscous suffusion along the termen from the apex to near the tornus. The hindwings are pale grey.[2]
