Microcolona embolopis is a moth in the Elachistidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1897.[1] It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[2]
The wingspan is about 11 mm. The forewings are whitish-ochreous, somewhat sprinkled with dark fuscous. There is a very small dark fuscous raised dot beneath the fold before one-third and the stigmata is very small, raised and black. There is a transverse raised black dot beneath the second discal and a sharply defined semi-oval dark fuscous blotch on the costa at two-thirds. The hindwings are grey.[3]
