Acraga angulifera is a moth in the Dalceridae family. It was described by Schaus in 1905.[1] It is found in Trinidad, Venezuela, Surinam and French Guiana. The habitat consists of tropical moist forests.

The length of the forewings is 11–12 mm. The forewings are pale yellow, with a dark brown inwardly curved line along the end of the cell and a subterminal brownish shade. The hindwings are pale yellow, but whitish toward the costal margin and brown at the anal angle. Adults are on wing year-round.[2]
