Antipterna spathulata is a species of moth in the family Oecophoridae, first described by Alfred Jefferis Turner in 1944 as Ocystola spathulata.[1][2] The species epithet, spathulata, derives from the Latin, spathulatus ("spoon-shaped").[2] The male lectotype for Ocystola spathulata was collected at Waroona in Western Australia.[1]
