Megalopyge uruguayensis is a moth of the family Megalopygidae. It was described by Carlos Berg in 1882. It is found in Uruguay and Argentina.[1]
The wingspan is about 30 mm. The forewings are fuscous, shaded with grey about the tornus. The veins are all white and there is a white shade at the end of the cell, joined by a postmedial white shade from the costa, partly cutting off a portion of the dark ground colour. There is also a postmedial interveinal white streak. The hindwings are white with fuscous scaling on the inner margin and the terminal space is broadly fuscous, cut by white veins.[2]
