Gelechia horiaula is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It is found in north-western India.[1]
The wingspan is about 13 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, somewhat whitish-sprinkled towards the margins and with ochreous-white markings. There is a moderate transverse fascia from the costa at one-fourth, not reaching the dorsum. A transverse spot is found in the disc beyond the middle, not reaching the costa or the dorsum, both its sides prominent in the middle. There is also a semicircular blotch on the costa about four-fifths. The hindwings are grey.[2]
