Laniifera cyclades is a species of snout moth in the family Crambidae.
[5] The forewings are fawn, but black at the base and clouded with blackish gray from the middle almost to the outer margin, with a narrow waved black line, edged with grayish white on the inner side, crossing the wing before the middle.
There is a submarginal zigzag grayish-black line, edged with white on the outer side, extending from the costal margin near the apex to the inner margin near the anal angle, and a round white spot in the cell and an elongate spot at the end of it, both edged with black.
The hindwings are pearly white, the marginal line fawn.
The caterpillars feed on Opuntia (prickly pear cactuses) and are considered a pest.
