Ardozyga mesochra is a species of moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland, [1] New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania. [2]

The wingspan is 11–16 mm (0.43–0.63 in). The forewings are whitish-ochreous, faintly yellowish-tinged and with four or five fine oblique dark fuscous marks on the costa, usually very small, sometimes connected or absorbed into a moderate streak extending from near the base to five-sixths. There is a broad rather dark fuscous streak along the dorsum and termen to the apex, the upper edge irregular, more or less marked with blackish, variably prominent at one-third, two-thirds, and near the apex, and indented between these. The hindwings are grey, darker posteriorly. [3]
