Matapa druna, the grey-brand redeye, is a butterfly in the family Hesperiidae. It is found from Sikkim to northern Vietnam, China, Borneo and Bali.
The length of the forewings is 19.4-23.4 mm for males and 21.4–26 mm for females.Separated from Matapa aria by the bright yellow fringes of the hindwings, but otherwise very closely allied to aria.[2]
The larvae feed on Bambusa species.[3]
