Ptochoryctis simbleuta is a moth in the family Autostichidae.
The forewings are white, with some irregularly scattered black scales, especially in the disc.
There is a patch of cloudy fuscous suffusion extending from the disc beyond the middle to the tornus and there is a pre-marginal series of black dots from four-fifths of the costa to the tornus.
The larvae feed beneath a web covered with refuse and pieces of bark, on bark of shoots of the tea plant, eating right through to the cambium, and thus killing the branch or plant.
