For material examined, description, distribution, and biology see below under subspecies.

Diagnosis. Gnophopsodos ravistriolaria can resemble G. tholeraria in wing-pattern and type of coloration but the yellowish basic color of G. ravistriolaria is more distinctive. Internally, the species is characterized by its unique, slender u-shaped incised juxta and the smooth-margined pincer-like appendix aedeagi.
