Procometis lipara is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1890. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from New South Wales. [1]

The wingspan is 17–22 mm. The forewings are rather dark fuscous with a pale ochreous-yellowish or whitish ochreous rather irregular suffused streak along the costa from the base to the apex, leaving the costal edge dark fuscous on the anterior half. There is a similar median streak from the base to two-thirds, sometimes dilated so as to coalesce more or less entirely with the costal. Some whitish-ochreous scales are found towards the hindmargin beneath the apex, sometimes forming a small suffusion, or increased so as to coalesce with the apex of the median streak. The hindwings are rather dark fuscous grey. [2]
