Holophysis stagmatophoria is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Walsingham in 1910. It is found in Mexico (Guerrero). [1]

The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are shining, bronzy brown, with brilliant silvery streaks becoming white towards the costa. The first of these is at one-fourth, running obliquely outwards from the costa to a little beyond the fold, this is almost entirely silvery white. The second is a little beyond the middle, forming an irregular outwardly curved fascia reduplicated on the cell, white on the costa with a slight aeneous tinge beneath it. The third forms a slightly oblique spot at the commencement of the costal cilia, a fourth appearing as an elongate, slightly aeneous, silvery patch along the termen. The hindwings are bronzy brown, slightly paler than the forewings. [2]
