Grammodes geometrica is a moth found from the Mediterranean east to Oriental and Australasian tropics of India, Sri Lanka, Java and Australia.

[2] This reclassification has not yet met with general consensus, and many resources and publications still follow the older classification scheme (e.g.[3]).

Antemedial and postmedial lines curved inwards below the costa with whitish bands outside them on the black patch.

The larvae feed on Phyllanthus, Cistus, Diospyros, Ricinus, Oryza, various grasses, Polygonum, Ziziphus and Tamarix species.
