Phigalia pilosaria, the pale brindled beauty, is a moth of the family Geometridae.

The male is grey with a more or less strong olivaceous tinge, sometimes mixed with some ochreous or with some whitish scales.

The female is stouter than that of E. defoliaria, with a longer ovipositor and dorsally more or less brownish, abdomen spinose.

The larva is brown mottled with ferruginous, frequently with V-shaped ochreous dorsal marks on the 2nd and 3rd abdominal segments.

The larva feeds on various deciduous trees, including Quercus species.
