Lasiomorpha noakesi is a moth in the Eupterotidae family. It was described by Joicey and Talbot in 1917.[1] It is found in New Guinea.
The length of the forewings is about 38 mm. The ground-colour of the wings is deep purplish-brown, heavily scaled and covered with short hairs at the base. The forewings have a large hyaline patch without scales below, but is sprinkled with scales of the ground-colour above. The patch is traversed by a dark line parallel to its outer edge which separates a narrow border more thickly scaled than the larger proximal part. There is a small tuft of yellow hair on the middle discocellular. The hindwings are without markings.[2]
