Compsolechia sporozona is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1914. It is found in Guyana, Brazil and Peru. [1]

The wingspan is 13–16 mm. The forewings are blackish, the markings formed of white irroration (sprinkles). There is a narrow basal fascia, widest on the dorsum, as well as a broad oblique antemedian fascia, sometimes connected on the dorsum with the basal, marked with a more or less distinct blackish spot representing the plical stigma. There is a broad postmedian direct fascia, not reaching the dorsum, marked with a round blackish spot representing the second discal stigma. There is also a slightly curved subterminal shade and a slender streak along the termen. The basal third of the hindwings is grey, around the apex sometimes whitish tinged towards the tips. [2]
